MSP tram coming soon!
Recent MSP news.
How will I get my exercise now! 
Long-delayed airport tram may open next month
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The long-delayed elevated tram may finally open next month at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.
By early May, airport officials might start letting passengers ride the automated cars that will operate alongside Concourse C.

I mention this because in most of the world (outside of North America) the Hiawatha Light Rail line would be referred to as a "Tram line"
