Trolleybuses in Coimbra | Portugal's last trolleybuses system 🇵🇹

Trolleybuses in Coimbra, Portugal's last trolleybuses system, Filmed in 2008
The system opened in 1947 and consists of two routes. Service is currently suspended.
"Coimbra city council has also announced that the city’s trolleybus service, which has been suspended on the last two lines 4 and 103 since 23 March 2021 due to road works, will not be resumed in the foreseeable future.
The overhead is still largely intact and 5 trolleybuses are still operational, four of the five trolleybuses - they are now 38 years old. The return of normal passenger operation on the country’s last trolleybus system seems rather unlikely"
