For further information, go to the company's website at
http://www.aebishop.com/ba_eng.htm  This transport 'alternative' using
narrow gauge small automated railcars is claimed to be able to shift up to
10,000 passengers per hour in an urban environment.  Of interest in the
'news' section of the site is an announcement in August of last year that a
prototype and test track were to be set up at Chullora by the Rail Services
Authority, and the first stage of this setup was expected to be operational
by the end of that year.
