Bern No. 66: Join the Bears on the Langgasse Trolley


I always say the only thing that is cheap in Switzerland is the chocolate but I suspect not these high-class offerings from Glatz Confiseur Beck, still maybe they will let you buy just a couple in exchange for you British-Pound. The trolleybus seen on a cold winter morning at the end of the rush-hour was from a small batch of Bern Volvo's delivered in 1985 and 62-66 were bodied by R&J.

  1. These fine vehicles have sadly been withdrawn recently, as trolleybus operation on routes 13 and 14 was discontinued to permit construction of new tram lines. I hope the rest of Bern's trolleybus system can survive though. I suppose it's a question of what the minimum critical size is. That's the argument that finally killed Basel.
