(Having written about another VLR, the 'Stourbridge Shuttle', in a former journalistic life more than a decade ago, I'm pleased to see that's still going though.)
Will that savings end up being worth it in the long run, though, given the capacity constraints of the vehicles?
(Sorry this post is probably going to make @jonworth.eu pretty angry, I suspect)
Coventry is somewhat bigger than Debrecen, and they have *two* whole tram lines.
(It is also a triumph of Britain’s post-war city planning so maybe it is too small idk)
