The herbs will be on the buses/trains.

What fuel will buses/trains use that will be cheaper than that for a

nuclear electricity of course.

Trolley busses.

Yes, in fact does anyone know why places like Manchester, Edinburgh, are
putting in trams at ruinous expense instead of electric trolley busses?
Apart from the willy-waving factor, that is.

Trams make traffic jams. A waste of time in many cases. Manchester try

for 95% of the route it is

Rapid it is not.
