Default Driverless trains installed at Terminal 5

"Six 15t automated cars, each with a capacity to carry up to 75 passengers,
have been delicately lowered by crane down a 12m shaft into the tunnel
system of T5's tracked transit system (TTS), ready for commissioning. "
I would guess the idea is similar to the driverless trains that feed
Kennedy Airport NY?
