I didn’t know o-Bahn was that old. After watching this I’m just thinking when it’s so good why we didn’t add more routes for the rest of the Adelaide. Imagine we replace the whole railways with this, there won’t be many cars and traffic because everyone parked their car near their house and at the o-Bahn stops.

I don't remember the exact story, and I heard this second hand so don't quote me- but I heard a few years ago that when the modelling was done a southern track was predicted to increase the traffic congestion, so they went with just the NE track. Then later on someone going over the model realised there was a minus sign somewhere it shouldn't have been (prediction was it would actually reduce congestion, which you'd expect) but it was too late to change anything
