This idea wasn't dreamed up by the builder of the Rabbit diesel pusher trailer. Seattle has had a fleet of articulated buses for quite a while that are combination diesel pusher in the trailer and electric power in the front half. Whether both power sources are used together at times is unknown to me. They have some sort of anti-jacknife control which isn't very effective because when we have snow, they are all in the ditches. The original Italian-built Breda buses mtbf in the early days was about 900 miles. http://transit.metrokc.gov/am/vehicles/hy-diesel.html RLE
