One of the first automated systems for human transportation was the screw-driven 'Never-Stop-Railway',<ref>[http://ftvdb.bfi.org.uk/sift/title/619596# British Film Institute] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130902144548/http://ftvdb.bfi.org.uk/sift/title/619596 |date=2013-09-02 }} Never-Stop Railway</ref><ref>[http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=8750 British Pathe (agency)] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110611090212/http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=8750 |date=2011-06-11 }} Never-Stop Railway film (probably 1925)</ref> constructed for the [[British Empire Exhibition]] at [[Wembley]], [[London]] in 1924. This railway consisted of 88 unmanned carriages, on a continuous double track along the northern and eastern sides of the exhibition, with reversing loops at either end.

The carriages ran on two parallel concrete beams and were guided by pulleys running on the inner side of these concrete beams,<ref>[http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=8750 British Pathe (agency)] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110611090212/http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=8750 |date=2011-06-11 }} Never-Stop Railway film (probably 1925), see at 01:24 for analyzing the guiding system</ref><ref>Hulton Archive: [http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/modified-tractor-running-on-the-never-stop-railway-at-the-news-photo/3314382 modified tractor running on the 'Never Stop Railway'] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130723122027/http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/modified-tractor-running-on-the-never-stop-railway-at-the-news-photo/3314382 |date=2013-07-23 }}</ref> and were propelled by gripping a revolving screw thread running between the tracks in a pit; by adjusting the pitch of this thread at different points, the carriages could be sped up, or slowed down to a walking pace at stations, to allow passengers to join and leave. The railway ran reliably for the two years of the exhibition, and was then dismantled.<ref>{{cite news | url = http://www.tribuneindia.com/2004/20040905/spectrum/art.htm | title = Exhibiting the Empire | newspaper = The Tribune | location = Chandigarh | access-date = 2006-11-06 | url-status = live | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20070312051308/http://www.tribuneindia.com/2004/20040905/spectrum/art.htm | archive-date = 2007-03-12 }}</ref>
