Remarkable. I applaud their coming up with something novel, something one doesn't see every day , or ever before. They certainly drew attention to the new tram, their goal, I assume. Bravo and Brava.

There is only one trolley route in Brest, at this time.

Looks like they could use more!

Looks as if cars are running a block apart.

3rd rail? The strip in the middle, maybe.
Like Washington.

That's what it looks like. I couldn't find any technical information in English.

The Washington, D.C. track looks just like cable track. The third rail contact is in the underground vault. Perhaps, the Tours third rail is not activated until the car is over it.

I'm a sucker for certain double decker trams. This was at the Wirral Bus and Tram show:

This appears to be built to the same plan as San Francisco's California Street cars, even though it's a trolley. Even the grip and brake levers are used as controls:
