Taking it easy in Lausanne

Because of it's rail interest the road transport operators of Switzerland tend to be ignored by transport enthusiasts despite their varied bus, trolleybus and tram systems. On Lake Geneva opposite France Lausanne had quite a laid-back rather romantic feel to it and operated some rather historic trolleybuses and No.684 seen on a dull morning in the early Nineties dated from 1969 was hardly the oldest. I might be wrong but if it is from that series this FBW carried locally built Eggli bodywork

  2. Lucky you, Switzerland there are worse places to grow up, and I went to school in Vaud for two years as well. Having looked at your blog I'm sorry to see Facebook has arrived in the Cantons, whatever next they'll satalite track the whereabouts of your cows up on the hillsides because wearing a cow bell is considered an infringement of Animal Rights.
