...but nobody rides it.  Just a few shots from back when I lived in Jacksonville, FL.  In their defense they built this system which connects various parts of downtown, just like the Portland Streetcar.  However nobody lives downtown there.  It is a standard dead American downtown.

The "People Mover" though is very efficient.  Frequencies of about 3-4 minutes between vehicles.  It is also vastly more economically efficient costing only about a few hundred thousand a year to operate.  There is no traffic congestion to deal with as it is raised.  Overall it is far superior to the streetcar systems that existed before, but the problem is its lack of connectivity to residential areas to bring people into the city.  The outer branches of it, if only about a 1/2 mile further on each end could connect to Riverside and other residential areas, which would provide massive ridership.

...anyway, enjoy the pictures.

If you're wondering, yeah, it is pretty much that empty ALL the time.  This was on a Saturday.  On the waterfront downtown there is actually a decent amount of activity.

One angle inside the vehicle...

...the other.

Leaving the southern most station.

One of the main streets of downtown, which during the work day is the cause of huge traffic lines and people strolling about for business activity.  The weekends and after work though, it is a ghost town.

The other side of that view coming into the southern end of downtown, still on the south side of the river.

Heading over the bridge into the core of downtown.  One can see the CSX headquarters on the left side.  The large black building is the Bank of America Tower, Bellsouth and Modis are also noticeably visible.

The above street cute through the buildings of downtown.

A quick shot of one of the monorail vehicles.

The stop right before the bus mall.  It is right next to the main little park downtown.

Another view.  Almost all of the businesses surrounding the park are empty, boarded, or barely subsisting off of the daytime business hours.
