inspired by https://mas.to/@TechConnectify/111574859014635095 - it is *amazing* how easy rail is to automate, once you separate the right-of-way

while firmly in "gadgetbahn" territory, the Morgantown PRT was fully automated, including a demand-response mode at certain times of day, with *PDP-11s* in the *1970s* without a single crash on that system

(their first crash was on the circa 1990s replacement automation system, in 2016, and their second crash was a boulder hitting a PRT car in 2020, AFAIK.)
