VLR Golden Coast LineBenefits of Very Light Rail for the BCP Corridor, Over thirty years life +of the Tram What we’re proposing A battery-dominant, OHLE and/or catenary-free VLR option for Line 1, “The Golden Coast Line”, using proven TiGM MRV-3 vehicles. These have operated for more than 14 years in Aruba in tourist-service mode and in Doha as city cars. Each MRV-3 carries around 100 passengers and can run in multiple-unit formation, for example two coupled cars providing about 200 passengers per train with one driver. The route would also be integrated with a high-quality greenway. This delivers a turn up and go service between Poole Station, Poole Hospital, Bournemouth Square with extendable stops at the Hospitals, to Christchurch Station BCP Bournemouth C/Church P/Mouth
