Most of my local public transport is electrically-powered now

Which is kind of my point. Over the years our public transport has been proudly advertising their use of biodiesels and bio gas, CNG and LNG. And apparently battery-electric buses are coming too. (Sorry, Adam Something. Apparently our city cannot into trams, as fucking awesome as it would be! But apparently the Green Party is proposing TRAINS)

cash certainly lives here

Yeah, and that was kind of a pointed example on my part. I don't think cash is going away entirely. That said, vast majority of our public transport is already apparently either going on prepaid cards or debit so, eh.
