The Municipality of San José [Costa Rica] is moving forward with the feasibility studies required to open a streetcar system for the capital, designed to ease traffic and make it easier to get around the city.

English text and a computer animation video with Spanish sub-stifles are here:

The video shows a "caterpillar" style (multiple articulations) streetcar with off-wire capability.  It's good that the line will be boulevard running, thereby keeping transit out of congested streets.  Sloan
