Trolleybuses in the Swiss city of Lugano.
Mostly filmed in summer 1991, although a few scenes date from 1994.
The trolleybus system opened in April 1954, as a tramway replacement, inheriting the tramway's 1000v power supply system. The latter became its Achiles heel, as most trolleybus systems are energised at lower voltages (typically 600v or 750v) and this meant that when they wanted new trolleybuses the price premium for the bespoke electrical packages made them so expensive that in the end the system was closed. Closure came in June 2001.
