The reason Seattle's new Capitol Hill Light Rail trolleys use a battery system backup is to " jump " the trolley bus wires at several intersections. METRO Seattle transit also bought some new electric busses that can go a mile or more on battery backup. Supposedly this is to allow them to drive around accidents and road construction.
