Mitsubishi Crystal Mover
Mitsubishi Crystal Mover is an automated rail system that uses rubber-tyred wheels to travel on a special track, with lateral guidance being carried out by rollers on guide rails. The system is used both as a people mover at airports and as a city express train. As the name suggests, the system is manufactured and marketed by the Japanese company Mitsubishi Heavy Industries .
