The report describes an engineering baseline definition of an urban fast transit link transportation system consisting of large vehicles riding on steel wheels along either side of a narrow central beam on two rails, one vertically above the other. Upper trucks provide one horizontal force couple to prevent cars from overturning and lower trucks provide other couple element and provide vertical support for vehicle weight. The switch is moving beam type, on track. Stations are off-line. Propulsion is by electricity. A low speed central business district system is also discussed. (UMTA abstract)
