The IRM isn't exactly a city. However, the IRM owns 22 trolley coaches, which is more than were run by the cities of Rockford, Peoria, Topeka, Rochester, Ottawa, Fitchburg, Knoxville, and Cornwall ON. In light of their successful preservation efforts, and the fact that they do operate trolleybuses, they more than deserve a spot on the map.
