I feel rather than having another talkfest we need to showcase the Japanese SC maglev but I may have been out of order.

Parrahub1

Did they try predrive grouting with it?

Parrahub1

It looks like they are using the Japanese EDS instead of the Chinese EMS

Parrahub1

Connecting Sydney WSA to Melbourne with overnight container trains earning $1.4b p/a will get bipartisan support with daytime fares only $10 anywhere with half hour frequency. Because proven 1997 to 2011 daytime 600 km/h southbound daytime Japanese SC maglev trains have to wait half an hour while no...

Parrahub1

Why an underground Japanese SC maglev? It enables a secure straight tunnel that is no more expensive than on the surface. This enables the overnight container trains to replace trucks as it has to go 600 km/h which is impossible with wheels. A single guideway between passing stations allows this spe...

Parrahub1

Perhaps China wants to can it because it is faster and cheaper than their EMS maglev with only 1 cm clearance.
In Australia we often have methane bubbles in our creeks but it is no big problem especially if the tunnel is well ventilated.

Parrahub1

It is nearly impossible in a democracy, even in Japan where fhey are underground the next state wants to stop it.

Parrahub1

A Communist party in Japan amazing, is there a democratic party in China?
We had bubbles when we drove under Sydney harbour and it was alright they just are using any excuse to stop it.

Parrahub1

That is where democracy fails.

Parrahub1

I know they want to put a HSR Newcastle to Sydney first but it would be easier to get bipartisan support connecting Sydney to Melbourne via Canberra and Albury first so a return of $1.4b p/a can be achieved on the $100 b project in three years. To allow trains to come from all directions in the futu...

Parrahub1

Problems I see are the huge foundations and slow speed.

Parrahub1

Have they asked the Chinese for their expertise ?

Parrahub1

My five cents is nuclear for the extra power needed for data centres then connect Sydney to Melbourne with the overnight Japanese SC maglev and as the tunnel goes directly below Snowy 2 put HVDC cables in it to save $4b on the Hume overhead transmission. If the tunnel is 14m diameter the SC maglev c...

Parrahub1

Any maglev has to be profitable with 600 km/h overnight container trains to replace trucks and planes over 1,000 km so while they driving the tunnel they should build a maglev train to showcase it connecting Melbourne to Sydney. Even though China has the most experience in the world with TBM they ca...

Parrahub1

Japan just needs China expertise to drive the tunnel.

Parrahub1

Many people say it cannot carry a container train but surely it can have extra magnets on each container what do people think ? After thinking about it each 40 foot container is only half the length of a SC maglev carriage and as every container has to be light enough to go on a truck there would b...

Parrahub1

If the tunnel is 14m diameter the SC maglev can earn AU $1.4b p/a with an overnight container train making daytime fares only AU $10 to anywhere between Sydney and Melbourne for stage one. Using fly in fly out Chinese expert teams with 60 TBM from 30 launch sites it would be driven in two years so t...

Parrahub1

It is a waste of time trying to get heavy electric trucks to go long distance when the overnight container train on the Sydney/Melbourne route is faster and cheaper without having to find 700,000 drivers p/a.

Parrahub1

As a container trainer is far lighter than a conventional freight train it can go overnight between Melbourne and Sydney in a 14m diameter tunnel that earns $1,400,000,000 p/a allowing the daytime ride only $10 which leaves every half hour replacing cars and trucks.

Parrahub1

Many people say it cannot carry a container train but surely it can have extra magnets on each container what do people think ?

Parrahub1

To avoid complex points i suggest the front wheels are steerable and to minimise the size needed for a freight terminal in western Sydney the northbound trains to Brisbane would be pushed next to each other on the hardstand.

Parrahub1

The 12 maglev elevators leave sufficient room for a supermarket to use the whole floor in the Parrahub building.

Parrahub1

Because NSW is having a study on transport I sent this email to Jo Haylen. True HSR will not take freight so it is unprofitable but with 60 Chinese double shield hardrock TBM a single tunnel connecting Sydney to Melbourne Via Canberra and Albury will remove trucks and planes from that route in three...

Parrahub1

That explains it.

Parrahub1

Was it made in Japan or China?

Parrahub1

They should stop the excavation and use the SC maglev as a tourist attraction and develop an overnight container train to connect Sydney to Melbourne via Canberra and Albury that will earn twice as much as just a daytime fare. At present China keeps saying it has got the fastest train in the world w...

Parrahub1

After watching Jeff Dimery on the National press club of Australia today I think we will have small 300 mw nuclear reactors replacing coal fired generators keeping the towns alive and using surplus power through HVDC cables in the tunnel making it even more profitable.

Parrahub1

As it is only single guideway between passing stations with a breathable 11 psi it allows the container train to go as fast as the LO maglev in a smaller atmospheric tunnel. The comparison can be seen here on your phone. https://app.sketchup.com/share/tc/northAmerica/Tl4G7kaL69I?stoken=xhCOzMNBqFSIk...

Parrahub1

As it would only take two years to drive from Sydney to Melbourne with 60 Chinese double shield hardrock TBM it may be better to forget about the greenies in Japan and think about making an overnight container train for Australia to double the income.

Parrahub1

To avoid complex points I suggest the front wheels are made steerable to access freight sidings on the outer suburbs.

Parrahub1

To balance our trade with China I suggest Australia buys 60 double shield hard rock TBM off them to drive the tunnel in two years creating peace in the south China sea. As well as having overnight container trains to double the earnings it can also take the HVDC cables from snowy 2 earning up to $12...

Parrahub1

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

Parrahub1

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 ...

Parrahub1

Have JR thought about getting Cat bonds before finishing the tunnel?

Parrahub1

China has 16229 tunnels so it may be good to ask them how to drive it.

Parrahub1

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...

Parrahub1

Get the Chinese to drive it as even though they are hopeless at maglev trains they are great at tunnels.

Parrahub1

That is the only problem with democracy.

Parrahub1

How does China expect fast maglev with only 1 cm clearance?

Parrahub1

I would like to add that the HVDC cables in the tunnel would not be blown down like happened yesterday to the Victorian power transmission above ground.

Parrahub1

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.

Parrahub1

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

https://www.iflscience.com/chinas-hyper ... hour-72860

Parrahub1

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.

Parrahub1

Don't they even know where they are going yet?

Parrahub1

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...

Parrahub1

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...

Parrahub1

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. PS By putting the HVDC cables in the Sydney to Melbourne tunnel it c...

Parrahub1

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.

It seems like they are reinventing the wheel.

Parrahub1

If 30 separate companies spend $2b each to connect Parrahub to Melbourne via Canberra and Albury then I believe it would be fair they do not pay any tax until they earn a certain amount per annum but it would be up to the federal government how much that would be to encourage investment. By having t...

Parrahub1

That is the only problem with democracy it is the same with America.

Parrahub1

As you cannot have freight on true HSR I can imagine a slow uneconomical line with all the maintenance that SC maglev avoids.

Parrahub1

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.

Parrahub1

Nobody will ever build anything that does not make a profit with overnight SC maglev container trains reducing the daytime fare below planes.

Parrahub1

The downside of democracy, everyone wants a station in their town and greenies want to stop everything.

Parrahub1

Wow 50 km/h

Parrahub1

My Satnav gets lost so I would never trust driverless cars also Hyperloop is all hype and the only maglev China and Europe makes will not go fast enough to replace planes and trucks.

Parrahub1

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.

Parrahub1

It is incredable they call themselves "experts"

Parrahub1

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.

Parrahub1

Just because the Chinese have given up on a maglev train they want to stop Japan being successfull.

Parrahub1

Get someone from China who has the experience in driving below far greater inflows below the sea to explain to them about predrive grouting.

Parrahub1

There is a huge potential for the SC maglev to be exported around the world particularly where it can leapfrog the last century HSR but it must be economically viable with an overnight container train to reduce the daytime fares below planes ortherwise the whole world will be stuck with trucks and p...

Parrahub1

While the professor has many qualifications he does not have the experience of the Chinese with predrive grouting in tunnels.

Where they say the letter demanded information it reminded me of the American democracy that had so many problems trying to please everybody the French HSR builders in California decide to go home. I believe there is a balance between peoples rights and the common good. Just ask the Chinese who have...

Parrahub1

Just because China will never be able to go 600 km/h with only 1 cm clearance the communist party of Japan wants to stop it.

Parrahub1

This old TBM did twice that average https://tunnelingonline.com/robbins-cro ... in-turkey/

Parrahub1

They would learn more developing a real SC maglev container train in the real world.

Parrahub1

Swallow their pride and get the Chinese to show them how it is done based on far greater experience.

Parrahub1

I agree it has to be fast enough to take an overnight container train to make it economically viable and you cannot get that with 1cm clearance.

Parrahub1

But if they want to sell it they have to make an overnight container train to reduce the daytime fare and get half the trucks off the road.

Parrahub1

Well if they developed a container train that reduced daytime fares below planes they could not only sell it to democries but it could easily remove the muck.

The Not In My Backyard NIMBYS are killing democrasies worldwide.

Parrahub1

I am sure the Chinese may be able to advise them with predrive grouting as they have driven past bigger inflows under the sea.

Parrahub1

Kameyama City with only 30,000 population and Japanese population shrinking perhaps it may be faster to skip it.

Parrahub1

It may work in some countries but in Australia our existing rail is too bendy for speed and being a democracy there are too many NIMBYS to use straight guideways on the surface I think it is better to keep slow wheels on existing rail and straight tunnels with an overnight SC container train to redu...

Parrahub1

The Chinese have demonstrated how they dealt with an inrush of water when they overcome a bigger one when they tunnelled beneath the sea so perhaps they can ask them. Even though Japan is better at SC maglev China is better at tunnels so they should cooperate with America to showcase an internation...

Parrahub1

Just build an overnight container train that will make it economical in big democracies like America as their existing rail and planes are yesterday technology and put it on YouTube in English if you want to sell the tech overseas.

Parrahub1

That is the problem in a democrasy there are too many NIMBYs

Parrahub1

China has much experience with tunnels, Japan has much experience with SC maglev and America is a huge country that needs a 700 km/h overnight container train between big cities to reduce daytime fares below planes. If they swallowed their pride and worked together showcasing it between Sydney and M...

Parrahub1

Well for a start the Japanese SC maglev has proven 600 km/h for ten years but it is parked while they extend the tunnel and 1,030 km/h is just BS.

Parrahub1

I think they are worried about nothing as tunnels are safer than viaducts and Japan has the best saftey record in the world in stopping the train and it cannot fall off a viaduct anyway.

Parrahub1

SC maglev is the future of train transport but it must have an overnight container train to reduce the daytime fare below planes but to go 700 km/h and prevent the surface problems it also must be done in a single 11 psi tunnel between big cities. My suggestion for the freight sidings is to make the...

Parrahub1

While they are doing the tunnel it may be a good opportunity to develop an overnight container train as they would never sell it to any big democrasy without it being economically viable.

Parrahub1

While I do think Africa has tremendous future potential, unless the SC maglev can take an overnight container train which is faster and cheaper in a single tinnel between big cities I cannot see it as being economically viable for just passengers.

Parrahub1

With Japan having a smaller population in the future, building another station which slows the SC maglev needs a rethink.

Parrahub1

I always believe that your first loss is your best loss, there is no point in throwing good money after bad.

Parrahub1

It is hard to believe they are still wasting money on Hyperloop.

Parrahub1

Very pretty but will not sell for passengers, it needs an overnight container train to lower daytime fares below planes in a big democracy.

Parrahub1

But they will never sell it overseas as it cannot carry an overnight container train which makes it uneconomical in big democracies.

Parrahub1

The proven Japanese SC maglev only needs an overnight container train to reduce daytime fares below planes so why waste money on trying to change proven maglev and proven containers?

Parrahub1

You do not have to reinvent the wheel as the Japanese SC maglev will go 600 km/h and in a single 11 psi tunnel go 700 km/h with an overnight container train to make daytime passenger fares cheaper than planes.

Parrahub1

It may be OK in a dictatorship but there would be too much resistance in a democracy so you could not sell the technology everywhere.

Parrahub1

In their dreams because they will not do that with 1 cm clearance.

Parrahub1

In my opinion they have more money than sense.

Parrahub1

It seems they realise they are stuck with trucks and have given up on the one cm maglev as it is too slow and expensive.

Parrahub1

You can have as many signatures as you like and if it is uneconomical passenger only it will never happen. There needs to be a international guideway that can take a 700 km/h overnight container train showcased between Sydney and Melbourne Australia which earns $2,000,000 per night reducing the dayt...
