A BLT (with bacon
) car cannot be extended beyond two artic.buses. So from the very start they are not extensible (like a Firefox plug-in) like a regular (off the shelf) rail car.
And look who developed the guided bus technology in the first place? Daimler Benz. An automobile company.
Nuff said.
Winnipeg would be the laughing stock of the nation if we implemented that technology.
Let's just go with underground rail, and Winnipeg will become a world-class city.
