Whole Europe needs it, too!

Munich need immediately this fast way to the airport! The old S-Bahn takes one hour. The Express-S-Bahn costs the same price and takes more then twice of the time.

This System could travel at 600 km/h (500 km/h routine speed) on a longer track and does not cause noteworthy abrasion. The test-track in Germany is in use since 1983 and nearly 780.000 km run over it and it did not need any reconstruction.
It is ashaming, that germany is not able to build an application track because of this fucking socialistic greenies in german parliament.

yea i know this
we were on holiday in the emsland area and we entered this train to
when we where in he go's 413 km/h
i know he can go faste i think they didnt give it full power
btw we did go in this train before the accident and not after the crash
and i say 1 thing about this ride,,,it was super cool;)

actually, this IS being considered in switzerland. it's called swissmetro. but at the moment it seems like it's going to be too expensive.

jup
Ok! Thanks for answering! SO it would be possible to build these systems in urban regions!

yup there are many routes around the world which have already been planned in heavy urban areas, just a matter of money to build them.

Ok! Thanks for answering! I was thinking that maybe the speed caused so much air displacement that it would be dangerous for the system to be in a "small" space, like a tunnel.
mtlguy112 4 years ago
You would think so but the strength of the electromagnetic field holding the vehicle to the track means that the force required for the vehicle to leave the track would be immense so the displacement of air in the tunnel would not have much effect on the system. This was proved sadly in the crash last year at the test facility, the vehicles collided at top speed it did not leave the track.

Excuse me, but it is possible to build such a fast train underground?
