This is the first example that popped in my mind, in Stockholm. It has sections where it's just running on its own lane on the street, and even some mixed traffic sections, but then it also has a lot of heavily separated bridge and other rail sections where it's almost like a proper railway

They're building a light rail line here now as well, but it won't be quite as elaborate as that Stockholm one
