The Huntsville Hospital Tram System is an automated people mover system located as part of the Huntsville Hospital System complex in Huntsville, Alabama, United States. Operating on a 1,890-foot (580 m) concrete guideway, the trams serve to connect the Huntsville Hospital with the Huntsville Hospital for Women & Children.[3] At the time of completion, this was the second hospital people mover system in the United States after the Duke University Medical Center Patient Rapid Transit.[4] As of January 2010[update], this is the only automated people mover system completed in the state of Alabama.[3]
