Before the Pandemic I was in Kansas City and they have a big and super nice tram that's free, goes by a ton of cool restaurants and bars and museums and ends up at Union Station and then goes back, fully automated I believe: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/KC_Streetcar

my only experience of kansas is driving across it, which takes approx eighty seven years
This is Kansas City, Missouri - definitely the best part of the state that I've experienced.
