New trolleybuses are idle in Yekaterinburg due to mass breakdowns.
The new trolleybuses that started operating on the routes of Yekaterinburg about a year and a half ago have practically stopped going out on the line due to numerous malfunctions.
As reported by the publication "Signal Ural" citing a source in "Gortrans," most of the vehicles have gone out of service. According to the interlocutor, complaints arise regarding various units and components of the trolleybuses manufactured in the Chelyabinsk region.
A small portion of the equipment is idle after accidents—the issue of their repair is being resolved with insurance companies. However, the majority of the faulty trolleybuses are under warranty service with the manufacturer. According to the source, "Gortrans" and the administration of Yekaterinburg have repeatedly contacted the manufacturer with demands to carry out warranty repairs, but it is claimed that the correspondence is dragging on, and the supplier is in no hurry to fulfill warranty obligations.
Ten new "Castor" trams have arrived in Yekaterinburg.
