Looks great. I've taken the Sky Train on the downtown to Metrotown route and it's fast with a great view.

The track is mostly raised, like a monorail's.

(Obligatory Simpsons reference: "There ain't no monorail here and there never was!")

Sadly here in Toronto our streetcars and subways cars are 20-25+ years old. Think: AC's 767s before they were XM'd. Some of the subway cars still bear the gaudy orange interior and vinyl seats from the 70's.
