Who Killed Kathmandu's Trolleybus?

From 1975 to 2008, Kathmandu possessed a vibrant trolleybus system. Gifted by China, these spacious and comfortable electric buses became a beloved part of the city's landscape. People of all walks of life enjoyed a clean and efficient commute, leaving behind a trail of fresh air instead of exhaust smoke.

Although the trolleybuses eventually disappeared from the streets, they left behind a legacy of hope and inspiration. Their story serves as a reminder that Kathmandu, once a champion of green travel, has the potential to reclaim its sustainable future. The ghosts of these electric giants still whisper within the city walls, urging us to listen to the call of a cleaner, greener tomorrow.
