I noticed the site mentions there's an airside version of it as well, which would shock me if true knowing how security obsessed that airport is. I've definitely seen the train in operation on a couple of visits though, so know it does exist somewhere.

Partial quote from web site:
Thus, the vice president of the implementing company Bernard Schocker, who explained that this train is moving electronically on a kind of pillows and not on wheels and is using computer without human intervention. The video illustrates the Air-side and Land-side, The Airside is mainly for transit passengers passing from one terminal to another without going through customs as they are still in the transit area. As for the Land-side, it is mainly for the general public to use to move freely within the airport. All trains and stations were also provided with various fire alarm systems and emergency exits to ensure the safety and security of passengers with trains, stations and along routes.
