MSP A/B/C

This tram runs outside, along the A/B/C concourse . It is pulled by cables, but runs on rails. There are 4 stations. The central 2 stations are used in one direction only to allow the trains to pass each other, allowing for some unique track work.

This system was supposed to open in 2002, but delays and accidents delayed its opening to 2004.
