[QUOTE="CreviceSucker, post: 560556, member: 1804"] If its freight only that could be a winner however freight mass is wildly variable and unpredictable from day to day. Hyper loop passenger trains have the risk of cabin depressurisation which would create a red mist event but non sensitive freight has potential. A traditional passenger train carriage could weigh 16 tonnes while a freight wagon could be 55 tonne , freight may not be viable on a maglev unless there were controls on mass limits. Maglev trains have a lower tare weight as rail bogies are not required so that is one bonus. [url]https://cr4.globalspec.com/thread/120099/Magtube-Question[/url] [/QUOTE]
