All battery/electric bus fleet
On Thursdays Wichita KS will convert it's bus fleet to all battery/electric bus fleet. With set routes and know range I think this is a wise use of a electric vehicle.

Would it have to be inductive charging? Could a buss bar make contact to the bus? If at a stop there was a large battery as large as the battery of the bus, and when fully charged had a voltage say 10% higher than the bus battery, and a pair of large bars made contact. I know good jumper cables can add voltage to a mostly discharged 12V battery pretty fast. The stationary battery could be recharged while the bus is gone.
