writes - Greenwich Waterfront line - interesting! Not so much a railway or tram as a "super-bus". Segregated alignments initially for bendy-buses, with allowance for later conversion to tram. Trolleybuses, not just bendy-buses. TfL view this as a "transit" network - superior to buses and almost as good as tram "Rapid Transit on Rubber Tyres" was the term being used at one point. The separate alignment, fixed infrastructure - overhead wires - and special vehicles were all designed to make it look more like tram/rail and less like bus. The same is true for East London Transit. -- Clive D.W.
