This chapter examines various aspects of automated transit technologies and their respective successes and failures in meeting the particular travel needs of various markets. It considers a number of real world applications based on diversified driverless metro (DLM), automated people mover (APM), and Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) technologies in various planning, construction, and operation stages as theoretical and practical laboratories. The Paris Metro is chosen as the case study of DLM since it includes not only the oldest and busiest metros in the world but also it showcases both installing a brand new DLM, and converting a manually driven operation to a fully automated DLM. The automated LRT (ALRT) or driverless LRT (DLLRT) combines proven technology with two important innovations: linear motors and steerable axle bogies. The chapter also presents APM applications in Las Vegas due to their concentrated geographic location along the Las Vegas Strip.
