Driverless tube put into use in S China

The photo taken on Nov. 9, 2010 shows city commuters aboard a carriage of the Automated Passenger Mover Systems (APM) in Guangzhou, capital of south China's Guangdong Province. The four-kilometer-long driverless tube, which was officially put into use on Monday, is an alternative north-south link in Guangzhou, the host city of the incoming Asian Games. It is believed that the new link could ease the traffic pressure in and out of the central business district. (Xinhua/Chen Yehua)
