PMDP GTFS (jizdnirady.pmdp.cz/jr/gtfs, fetched 29 Sep 2026), trolleybus routes (route_type 11), service day Tue 29 Sep 2026. Departures are the trips starting from each terminus between 16:00 and 16:59. Headway is the median gap between 15:00 and 18:00, runtime the average scheduled time from first to last stop. Depot runs (to and from Karlov) and patterns with fewer than 3 trips in 15:00–18:00 are left out.

Not modelled. 17 (Doubravka – Nová Hospoda, 3 trips in 15:00–18:00), 19 (Karlov – Nová Hospoda, none) and the night line N7 have no afternoon-peak service. The 12 branch to Letkov, V Podlesí has no trip in 15:00–17:59. Minor patterns in 15:00–18:00 left out of the Simutrans lines: 13 Na Dlouhých → Černice (2 trips); 15 Hlavní nádraží → Borská pole (2 trips); 15 Nová Hospoda → Hlavní nádraží (2 trips); 22 Koterov → Malvíny (4 trips).

Battery sections

Stretches run off the wire, on the traction battery. The PMDP GTFS has no route shapes, so every stop of each stop pattern is tested against the OpenStreetMap overhead wire (trolley_wire, read 29 Sep 2026): a stop more than 60 m from any wire is off the wire, and consecutive such stops form a stretch, named from the last stop under the wire. Lengths are straight lines between stops, so the road distance is a little longer. Battery-capable trolleybuses (marked battery in the lists): every Škoda 26 TrNU and 27 TrNU, and the Škoda 26 Tr 565–582 (Wikipedia, Škoda 26Tr and 27Tr fleet lists). The 26 Tr 551–552 and 27 Tr 527–530 and 540 have an auxiliary diesel unit instead (marked diesel auxiliary). In the pak every trolleybus object is a road vehicle with electric traction, so the game needs no wire; the check below is what the real operation requires.

11Simutrans 11

CAN Husova – Malesice about 5.9 km, on the way to Malesice

Křimice – CAN Husova about 6.2 km, on the way to Ústřední hřbitov

CAN Husova – Křimice about 6.2 km, on the way to Křimice

Malesice – CAN Husova about 5.9 km, on the way to Ústřední hřbitov

Both branches beyond CAN Husova run on the battery, about 6 km out to Malesice or Křimice (partial trolleybus operation; Wikipedia: CAN Husova – Malesice – Křimice).

Check passed on 11: all 5 counted trolleybuses are battery-capable (3× Škoda 26 TrNU, 2× Škoda 26 Tr).

12Simutrans 12

Letkov, V Podlesí – Božkov about 3.7 km, on the way to Nová Hospoda

Božkov – Letkov, V Podlesí about 3.7 km, on the way to Letkov, V Podlesí

Only the Letkov, V Podlesí trips run beyond Božkov on the battery (Wikipedia: Božkov – Letkov, V Podlesí).

Not in the modelled peak: the Letkov branch has 5 trips a day and none in 15:00–17:59, so the Simutrans line 12 stays under the wire.

13Simutrans 13

U Staré Kovárny – NC Černice about 2 km, on the way to NC Černice

NC Černice – Černice about 1.8 km, on the way to Na Dlouhých

Every 13 trip runs the last stretch to NC Černice on the battery (Wikipedia: Černice – NC Černice).

Check passed on 13: all 7 counted trolleybuses are battery-capable (4× Škoda 26 TrNU, 3× Škoda 26 Tr).

22Simutrans 22

Vodárna – Koterov about 4.4 km, on the way to Koterov

Koterov – Vodárna about 4.4 km, on the way to Škoda VIII. brána

OSM has the wire from Vodárna towards the centre; Wikipedia also lists Tyršův most – Vodárna as a battery stretch, which the OSM wire does not show. Either way the whole line needs battery trolleybuses.

Check passed on 22: all 5 counted trolleybuses are battery-capable (4× Škoda 26 TrNU, 1× Škoda 26 Tr).

49Simutrans 49

U Práce – Areál FN about 2.2 km, on the way to Areál FN

Areál FN – U Práce about 4.3 km, on the way to Hlavní nádraží

Beyond U Práce the line runs on the battery up to the Lochotín hospital (Wikipedia: U Práce – Areál FN).

Check passed on 49: all 2 counted trolleybuses are battery-capable (2× Škoda 26 TrNU).

Lines 10, 14, 15, 16 and 18 run under the wire from end to end (a lone terminus platform away from the wire, such as Lobzy, Na Dlouhých or Nová Hospoda, is a turning loop under the wire). The check fails a Simutrans line if any counted trolleybus on it is not battery-capable; on a battery line a car without a battery is also the first to be marked not needed.

Simutrans schedule

Values to type into the fork’s Scheduling tab, on the stop entries listed for each Simutrans line. Units are calendar minutes; the offset counts from 01:00, as the fork does: minutes after 01:00 modulo the interval (the same as after midnight for every interval that divides 60); Leave up to stays automatic. Every PMDP trolleybus terminus is a turning loop (as on the Brno, Prague and Ostrava trolleybus sheets), so every departure is set 1 min before the timetable departure to clear the loop on time: offset and each Also at value are the real minute − 1 (mod the interval), with the real minutes shown underneath. Put the timetable on the entry the trolleybus leaves from. Branches that trolleybuses alternate between (10, 11) are one Simutrans line with the shared terminus twice; the 15 branch to Nová Hospoda is its own line. Each line is fitted at one rate, the number of 16:00–16:59 departures most of its entries share, so no end sends more trolleybuses than the other. Plzeň’s afternoon timetable is irregular (gaps of 5 to 9 min on 12 and 16, 12 and 24 on 10), so many entries cannot be exact: they are marked approximate with their largest deviation and the real 16:xx minutes. Depot runs are not modelled.

Line	Stop entry	Departure every	Offset	Also at	Stop type	Leave up to	Per hour	Matches real timetable	Trolleybuses

	Trolleybuses alternate between the two branches: in the 15:00–17:30 chaining, 6 of 7 Černice → Tylova arrivals go on to Čechurov and 4 of 6 Čechurov → Tylova arrivals go on to Černice. So it is one Simutrans line, Tylova → Čechurov → Tylova → Černice (→ Tylova), with Tylova in the schedule twice, as on the Plzeň tram line 4.

	Trolleybuses alternate between the branches: 5 of 6 Křimice arrivals at Ústřední hřbitov go on to Malesice, and 5 of 6 Malesice arrivals go on to Křimice. One Simutrans line with Ústřední hřbitov twice, every 30 each.

	The battery branch to Letkov, V Podlesí has 5 trips a day each way and none in 15:00–17:59 on 29 Sep, so it is not a peak trip and not modelled. Both ends 8 an hour as every 15 with two slots, 7 and 8 min apart (Nová Hospoda :00 :08, Božkov :00 :07): the real headway thins from 6 to 8 min over the hour, so no repeating pattern is exact; these are within 2 min of every real 16:xx departure (3 min over 15:30–17:00). This replaces every-60 and every-45 rows with eight and six slots that matched the real minutes for one cycle only.

	Na Dlouhých → Černice (2 trips, 16:41 and 17:17) is the post-peak form, not modelled.

The Simutrans line runs the modelled every-60 pattern: 28 + 29 min running plus two 3-minute turns is 63 min, so 2 trolleybuses. 2 logged
15NLobzy – Nová Hospoda (branch)branch	Nová Hospoda to Lobzy	60	33real 34	–	loop −1 min	auto	1	exact 16:34–16:34
	A peak branch: 4 trips from Lobzy (15:48, 16:14, 16:44, 17:44) and 3 back in 15:00–17:59, no depot at either end, running alongside the Borská pole pattern. Its own Simutrans line.
16Doubravka – Sídliště Bory	Doubravka to Sídliště Bory	6	3real 4	–	loop −1 min	auto	10	approximate, ±2 min real 16:xx :00 :05 :11 :16 :22 :28 :34 :40 :46 :52 :57; not reproduced: :00 :05 :11 :57; modelled but not in the timetable: :04 :10 :58	12 needed (timetable cycle 66 min, +1 for the most on the road at once) 18 logged, 6 not needed

	Both ends every 6 (10 an hour), as the real line runs every 5–7 min all afternoon: Sídliště Bory :00 mod 6 and Doubravka :04 mod 6, each within 2 min of every real 16:xx departure (3 min over 15:30–17:00). This replaces an every-48 row with eight slots that matched the real minutes for one 48-minute cycle only.

	Škoda VIII. brána to Malvíny	0	–	–	no timetable	–	–	Empty back to Malvíny, about 5 min (out of service in reality).
	In the 16:00 hour every Koterov departure runs to Škoda VIII. brána (16:09, 16:26, 16:45), and no trip comes back from there after 15:22. The trolleybus returns empty to Malvíny (about 5 min, a guess) for its next Malvíny → Koterov trip. Koterov → Malvíny runs at 15:17, 15:26, 15:56 and 17:12, outside the 16:00 hour, so it is not modelled.

Trolleybuses needed at 16:00: follow a trolleybus leaving the first entry around 16:00 through every leg of its line, taking at each terminus the first departure at least 3 min after arriving, or less where the timetable itself turns faster; a round trip waiting longer than the line’s interval (at least 30 min) is skipped. The need is never below the most trolleybuses on the road at once between 16:00 and 16:59 (each trip holding its vehicle until arrival plus min(3 min, the terminus’s shortest timetabled turnaround)); this adds one on 13, 16 and 22. Where more were logged than the need, exactly the need stays counted and the rest is marked not needed (dimmed, left out of every count, the depot and the pak totals): one of every type of the line first, then afternoon-only kurzy and the highest kurz numbers are dropped first (user rule, 29 Sep 2026; pipeline/brno-trolleybus common.mark_spares). Where fewer were logged, real cars from the line’s own history are designed in; on 18 Sep no trolleybus line was short.

Trolleybuses by line

One row per kurz out in the afternoon peak on Fri 18 Sep 2026, grouped by Simutrans line. Each vehicle shows its number and depot, its full type and length, battery capability, and the pak128 core (requested = the object is not in the pak yet). Kurz numbers are PMDP’s, written record line / kurz. No note on the record means the car was out all day; ráno i odpoledne is a split duty out in both peaks; odpoledne is the afternoon car of a kurz whose morning car is listed under Not counted.

one line, both branches Trolleybuses alternate between the two branches: in the 15:00–17:30 chaining, 6 of 7 Černice → Tylova arrivals go on to Čechurov and 4 of 6 Čechurov → Tylova arrivals go on to Černice. So it is one Simutrans line, Tylova → Čechurov → Tylova → Černice (→ Tylova), with Tylova in the schedule twice, as on the Plzeň tram line 4.

The trolleybus returns empty to Malvíny (about 5 min, a guess) for its next Malvíny → Koterov trip. Koterov → Malvíny runs at 15:17, 15:26, 15:56 and 17:12, outside the 16:00 hour, so it is not modelled.

Each type counted in the peak, mapped to the object the VZ pak session is asked to make in VZ-PMDP-trolleybus. There is no PMDP trolleybus package yet, so every object is requested, never a stand-in from another city. Full names follow VZ-PMDP-<type>-<livery>-<core>; an articulated trolleybus is the front object plus its -B rear, and the lists show the first core only. Car units per vehicle (16 = one tile). Every PMDP trolleybus is in the green-white livery; advert wraps map to it. The request list is pipeline/plzen-trolleybus/pak_request.md. VZ pak session objects, checked against simutrans-custom-czech-pak128 main. Status "requested" = not yet in any local pak build; the name is the one asked for in pak_request.md.

Method and sources

Which day. The network is the timetable in force on Tue 29 Sep 2026 (PMDP GTFS, service day 29 Sep; line 12 shifts by a minute from 1 Oct). The vehicles are from Fri 18 Sep 2026: seznam-autobusu.cz has one or no trolleybus record on 23, 24, 25 and 29 Sep, and 28 Sep was a holiday, so 18 Sep is the latest complete Friday (Mon 21 and Tue 22 Sep are complete too). The Plzeň tram sheet uses the same day.

Vehicles. seznam-autobusu.cz vypravenost (mhd-plzen), one list per line, e.g. line 16 on 18 Sep. The site files 22 and 49 among the buses, but the cars logged on them are trolleybuses, and the GTFS marks them as trolleybus routes. Three cars logged on 18 with no note also worked 10, 12 and 13 that day; they are counted there.

Types, depots, liveries. seznam-autobusu.cz fleet register of PMDP (trolleybuses in service), read 29 Sep 2026. Car ids are the key, because PMDP trolleybus and bus numbers overlap. Battery capability: Wikipedia (Škoda 26Tr, Škoda 27Tr, Trolejbusová doprava v Plzni).

Battery sections. OpenStreetMap trolley_wire (Overpass, 29 Sep 2026) against the GTFS stops, cross-checked with Wikipedia’s list of partial-trolleybus stretches.

Simutrans schedule. Fitted in whole calendar minutes with the fork’s Departure every / Offset / Also at fields, using the shared rule in pipeline/README.md (core 15:30–16:30, longest exact run, simplest pattern, one rate per line). Line 10 is fitted every 24 min per branch, its real pattern, and 22 from Koterov every 30.

Rebuild. Generated by pipeline/plzen-trolleybus (state “2026-09-29”), which imports helpers from the Plzeň tram pipeline (pipeline/plzen) and the Brno trolleybus pipeline; see pipeline/plzen-trolleybus/README.md. The Plzeň bus sheet is built by the same scripts.
