The VTA Ohlone-Chynoweth station is where the Blue Line takes a break from its freeway median existance to branch off a short spur to Almaden. Despite the VTA's exceedingly cheap single direction ABS signaling system (no reverse signal, even at interlockings), they did bother to interlock the signals with the pedestrian crossing warning devices at this particiular station. You can see how they work in this video montage.

Bridge work, a late running train and a dispatching mixup left an eastbound PATCO train on the eastbound track at 8th and Market with no way forward and no direct way to crossover. Because of the original layout of the Bridge Line, trains on track 1 can only pull into the pocket track east of the station. Crossing over requires a sawback move, reversing out of the pocket and then reversing again once on track 2.
This video covers the second half of the maneuver with the train pulling out of the pocket track, the pneumatic switch machine throwing, the signal displaying and the train taking off. PATCO had a supervisor on the train who took control from the opposite cab to expedite the movement. Notice how quickly PATCO can pull off the change in direction, compared with a railroad MU which would need to conduct a brake test.

Head end ride on the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey's "Airtran Airtrain" as it runs from the Howard Beach parking Lot / Subway Station station to the Federal Circle transfer station after servicing all of the JFK terminals in an anti-clockwise direction.
The AirTran Airtrain is a Bombardier built ZPTO automated transit system rooted in the old UTDC ICTS, Despite the Airtrain being an essential service for travelers there was significant trackwork going on that day which resulted in increased headways and lots of wrong railing. Great for railfanning, but sucking for air passengers.
I miscalculated which direction I was going to shoot the video so the segment between the A-Train terminal station and the parking lot station is in the opposite direction at the end of the video.
Due to Hurricane Sandy a shuttle bus was running between Howard Beach and Far Rockaway allowing free transfer to the Airtrain saving $10. Trains wrong rail out of the Jamaica terminal to allow out of service cars to be stored on the main track.
