Light Rail Vehicles - LRT, ICTS, Monorail, and more
No, OrlyVal is a connector that goes through an industrial and farmland area to connect an airport to an adjacent train station.

Obviously in a city it would be elevated (or underground).

Yes, automated metros have safety systems. Many have "coffeepot" laser sensors at stations and along the tracks to detect guideway intrusion (Copenhagen). Some use pressure mats in the stations that aren't equipped with platform screen doors (Vancouver).
