They want you to use fossil fuels people. This is not profitable for the big companys. If they agreed on building these between citys/countrys, we would have less climate issues.

You know whats sad, if we didnt have such a huge DOD buget we could do something like this but we choose not to

Normal trains don't use energy they use more costly fuel electric energy is more plentiful and easier to produce then oil so will be much cheaper. I don't know what you are smoking Divineego? The only reason Maglev Tech in on the shelf is because OPEC wants it there until they can figure out how to control it.

In an ideal world there would be no need for trains at all.

tzm!

[unamaxify]

this sound all very good

but normal trains use less energy because they don't have to lift the train up

-> granted if normal trains would go as fast as a maglev it would use more energy

-

the video says that infrastructure cost are the same, however i remember having read an article that said the very high infrastructure cost were the reason why maglevs are such a rare sight.

What happens when at 500km/h its suddenly brakes, would the people go splat??

I understand that some people enjoy living in the stone age, but it's the 21st century, people! We need to start somewhere if we're ever going to catch up to the Jetsons!

@devilpizza123 canada is even further behind. 5Mbps DSL internet gets you 25Gigs for 50$ in urban areas (including the invisible bullshit charge).
