Jesus... trolley wheels *and* pantographs? Looks like a maintenance work creation scheme. Good find!

The ones(Continental make) used on Siemens e-Highway trucks look much less clumsier, I would say.

Rather different applications; one moves at walking pace, along 265m of wire, and is 106 years old. The other has rather more technological challenges and assistance!

Hang on. Is there an electric field across those wires or are the two just for some sort of maintenance redundancy?
