Re: [US] Washington D.C. to Baltimore Maglev: Maryland leaders push back over funding

Why do they have a video of the Japanese SC maglev when I bet it is the Chinese maglev limited to people at 300 km/h

Re: [DO] Boegl TSB for the Dominican Republic (FITRAM)?

With only 1 cm claerance the track costs too much to build and maintain and it can never take freight in my opinion where the Japanese SC maglev has 10 cm clearance all it needs is a 14m diameter TBM tunnel and a few extra magnets to have a overnight container trains loaded and unloaded through the ...

Re: [JP] Chuo Shinkansen Summary

It is faster even at 20 days to use trucks rather than rail from China to Europe so they really need a Japanese SC maglev that can take overnight container trains so the pallatised freight is the answer for the world with daytime smaller trains to reduce risk. https://www.logisticspeople-community.c...

Re: Maglev: The future mode of India's transportation (?)

If you want to replace planes and trucks over 1,000 kilometers you only have a couple passing stations and use the proven 600 km/h Japanese SC maglev.

If you want to use the slower Chinese maglev with many stations then that would be the cheapest.

It all depends on what you need.

Hard to believe.

There are claims that China has a maglev train that goes 623 km/h but I cannot see that with only 1 cm clearance.

EMS may be ok for around town but if they want to export it to China it would have to be EDS because the guideway costs too much to build and maintain with only 1 cm clearance.

Re: [CA] High-speed maglev line connecting Toronto with other major cities?

I think it is better to build it in straight big TBM driven tunnel between stations that are no closer than 200 kilometers apart to avoid everybody wanting a station at their town or opposition from farmers, greens and NIMBYS. The larger tunnels will allow overnight container trains and possibly ext...

As the farmers do not want power lines across their paddocks in Australia could the power made by Snowy 2 be transmitted via the Sydney to Melbourne Japanese SC maglev PS I found out that there is 100% p/a profit using HVDC cables in the Sydney to Melbourne tunnel so now you have $2b p/a from overni...

Re: [EU] Exploring the Impact of Magnetic Levitation Trains on Global Transportation Systems

The only reason they cost so much is because Japan does not use 60 Chinese like Australia could and build from Sydney to Melbourne in three years allowing it to make a profit of $2,000,000 per night with overnight container trains.

The Japanese SC maglev is already proven and all it needs is a aTBM tunnel to allow overnight container trains to go 700 km/h.

There is no way it can go fast with only 1 cm clearance and although they claim it will go faster than the Japanese SC maglev I have only seen videos of people pushing it.

Sorry about that mate.

In my opinion medium speed maglev will not be economically viable because it is too slow to beat trucks with an overnight container train over 1,000 km to reduce the daytime fare but that is just my opinion.

Re: [DE] Max Boegl TSB Maglev vacant positions

Why try to reinvent the wheel when Japan has already proven a 600 km/h SC maglev and if is used in overnight container trains Sydney/Melbourne in an 11 psi single tunnel it will go 700 km/h and reduce the daytime fare below planes while earning $2,000,000 per night @$2,000 per container.
