Default how expensive would it be to create a Malta urban railway?

catchment: a large part of the working population + students + elderly
+ tourists

tourists count to around 1 million visitors each year with about 2/3 in
the summer months. So the population basically doubles in the
summertime.

I'm reliably informed that the Maltese government wishes to upgrade harbour
facilities at Valetta, and posibly elsewhere, to deal with a greatly
increased cruise traffic. Do your suggested LRT facilities include any
provisions for serving the harbour area?
