SHANGHAI’S last remaining 100 or so old trolley buses will be withdrawn from service today, making way for new-generation electric buses.

And almost 100 nostalgic trolley bus enthusiasts yesterday took the No. 14 trolley bus route — China’s first — to bid them farewell.

Trolley buses on 12 routes,  including the No. 6, 8, 13, 14, 15, 20 and 23, will be replaced by 300 battery-powered buses.
