The US Standard Light Rail Vehicle (SLRV) was a light rail vehicle (LRV) built by Boeing Vertol in the 1970s. The Urban Mass Transportation Administration (UMTA) of the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) promoted it as a standardized vehicle for U.S. cities.

Light rail is a generic international English phrase for types of rail systems using modern streetcars/trams, which means more or less the same thing throughout the English-speaking world. Light rail systems can range from trams running in streets along with other traffic, to semi-metro systems having portions of grade separated track.

Light rail vehicle, abbreviated to LRV) is a form of passenger urban rail transit rolling stock derived from tram technology while also having some features from heavy rapid transit. List of LRV Models

Rail Vision’s system for Light Rail Vehicles (LRV) is specially designed to address the challenges of urban environments. Based on electro-optic sensors combined with artificial intelligence and deep learning technologies, the system detects and classifies obstacles at a range of up to 200 meters in all weather and light conditions.

The major factors to consider in selecting a configuration for a light rail vehicle (LRV) are determined by the characteristics of the transportation system itself—physi-cal constraints, distance and volume of trips (average and extremes), desired average speed, dwell time, throughput volumes, station spacing, and upper and lower limits of stati...
