Monorails are also considered to be a separate technology. Light rail system can handle steeper inclines than heavy rail, and curves sharp enough to fit within street intersections. They are generally built in urban areas, providing frequent service with small, light trains or single cars. 一些系统例如人的迁徙和快速客运可以被认为是轻轨。至少在每辆车的客容量以及他们的运行速度方面。并且单轨被认为是一种单独的技术。轻轨系统可以比重轨更好的运用于陡峭的斜坡上，并且足够适合包括十字路口在内的各种突然出现的难题。他们当然也被建在城市地区，用更小、，更轻便的列车或者是私家车来提供一些常见的服务。 The most difficult distinction to draw is that between light rail and streetcar or tram systems. There is a significant amount of overlap between the technologies, and it is usual to classify streetcar/trams as a subtype of light rail instead of as a distinct type of transportation. The two common versions are: 最难区分得出的是，轻轨和有轨电车或有轨电车系统之间。在大量的重叠技术之中，有着一个明显的地方，就是把有轨电车归类为轻轨的一种而不是作为一种特殊的类型运输的分类。这两个通用的说法是： (1) The traditional type, where the tracks and trains run along the streets and share space with road traffic. Stops tend to be very frequent, but little effort is made to set up special station. Because space is shared, the trains are not usually visible. (1)传统的类型，其中轨道和列车沿着街道和共享空间与道路交通运行。车站是非常频繁的，并且很容易设置专门的站点，因为空间是共享的，而轨道通常是不明显的。 (2) A more modern variation, where the trains tend to run along their own right-of-way and are often separated from road traffic. Stops are usually less frequent, and the vehicles are often got on from a platform. Tracks are highly visible, and in some cases significant effort is used to keep traffic away through the use of s
