Autonomous above ground light rail. Autonomous doesn't come cheap.
Of course, what they spend extra during construction should be made good later when they don't have to pay a driver a salary, medical insurance, retirement pension, family leave, vacations, coffee breaks, and holidays to actually run the train. A computer that doesn't need all the above on the train will be doing that!
All the experts suggest a computer operator will eventually be cheaper.
