- World’s first vertical trains climbing skyscrapers are proposed by Londoners Christopher Christophi and Lucas Mazarrasa.
- Vertical giant skyscrapers – this futuristic project will replace existing stations by reducing usage of land, but this technology will replace platforms and track facilities in a tower.
- The ‘Hyper Speed Vertical Train Hub’ can go up the building with powerful magnets on sides of the train.
- Nations worldwide from the USA to UK,in order to maximize their economic growth are consolidating futuristic proposals for an advanced public transport network.
- As future’s population gravitate towards living in mega cities,the cities are exploring innovative forms of public transport.
- The futuristic proposals will save time(average distance covering 482km in 30 min), reduce carbon-di-oxide emissions,increase energy security and revolutionize international trading relations.
- There will be exchange of people and goods with new hyper speed network by creating connectivity points and replacing flagship train stations.
- The train will transit from its horizontal formation allowing the passengers remain in an upright position to facing the city.The carriages will be supported by a magnetic structure eliminating the need for rails beneath.
Exams Perspective:
- Hyper Speed Vertical Train Hub
