Fastransit's GRT Vehicle up Close
Currently, urban mass transit consists of trains of multiple cars carrying up to several hundred passengers per train and running with headways of several minutes, at best. The requirement for each train to stop at each station along the way results in longer origin-to-destination transit times. Off-peak headways are considerably longer because of the equipment and labor inefficiencies at lower ridership densities.
