Buses and trolleybuses in Vilnius, Lithuania - August 2022

The most common bus models in this video are Solaris Urbino IV (12/18), MAN A23 Lion's City G CNG, Anadolu Isuzu Citibus and Volvo B7LA 7700A. You can also see Scania CN280UA Citywide LFA, MAN A21 Lion's City (CNG) Solaris Urbino III 12 CNG, MAN A40 Lion's City GL, Volvo B7L 7700, MAN A23 NG313 and Irisbus Citelis 12 Castrosúa City Versus CNG. The most common trolleybus model in this video is Škoda 14Tr. You can also see Solaris Trollino IV 12, Solaris Trollino II 15AC, Škoda 14TrM and Škoda 15Tr. The bus fleet is still almost to same, but the MAN A23 NG313 VVT 4011 has been withdrawn. The bus traffic will expand and the first electric buses will come probably in near future. The first electric city buses are going to be operated by private operators, not VVT. The last Euro3 buses will be in use at least until 2026. I will probably film a new bus video in 2025 or 2026. 23 Škoda 32Tr SOR trolleybuses are in service now (19.9.2024) and more coming soon. One Škoda 14Tr and one 14TrM seen in this video have been withdrawn: 2564 (from 1990) was withdrawn in January and 2667 (from 1999) in March 2024, not scrapped but probably not coming back. Many more have been withdrawn in last months, but I didn't get them on this video, but some of them can be seen on this years video (to be published much later). More 14Trs will withdrawn soon and the last ones (also 14TrMs) in 2026. There are only three 15Trs in Vilnius, but I'm not sure when they are going to withdrawn but maybe in 2026. After 91 2-axle trolleybuses, 73 articulated trolleybuses are coming to Vilnius (the model is still unknown until next year). Now Vilnius still has more old Škoda trolleybuses than any other city in the world. Filmed: 1.8., 3.8., 4.8., 5.8. and 6.8.2022
