One icy snow storm and the catenary overhead gets gummed up and the poles don't work.

I once got a tour of Vancouver's trolly bus barn. From what they told me, the batteries are really limited in range. AND have to be serviced/ replaced more frequently than Hybrid bus batteries.

Has any transit property managed to use underground (induction) in ice and snow?
