The Overhead

Maintaining the trolley wires is a job for electricians who specialize in this work. Trolley buses in Vancouver run on 600V DC. Here a broken cable is being spliced together.

I can only guess at the miles of overhead in Vancouver but it's in the hundreds of miles at the very least.

On this day I was looking for views of snow capped mountains. This view is cluttered with trolley wires.

This is the old bus barns at Oak and 41st. They are little used since new and bigger facilities were built. Eventually they'll be gone altogether.

After looking at this shot several times I finally noticed that there isn't a trolley in sight.
