Perugia,
Italy Streets can be simply be bridged over the track bed. . . .  The track can be laid in all parts of the city. It can be underground, on ground or in the air. The system permits additional cars to be placed on the line for peak traffic operations.  When the car exits the station, it picks up the moving cable. The maximum line speed is 22-30 km/h.  These horizontal tires pull the cars into the station. The cars require no motors so more can be added at a much lower cost than subway cars. . . .  The tires push the cars out of the station so they can pick up the moving cable.  The company who created the system is Leitner Technologies. I have many more photographs of this system, please contact me if you want more information. Click here for the car photos The photos on this page were taken by David Callan Italy, France &
