Three driverless trains are planned to be installed by 2027.

They will be equipped with batteries and a design developed in collaboration with Disney.

This will allow the line to operate without pantographs and overhead lines, facilitating future expansion planning.

The CBTC signaling system will also be modernized.

The Resort Line, opened in 2005, currently uses Alstom trains modified for the driverless system.
