Computer Chauffeur

Relax and leave the driving to your 100% attentive computer chauffeur: Once boarded, a SkyTran pod becomes the passenger's private vehicle. The passenger decides exactly where they want the computer chauffeur to take them. No stopping at each and every rail station to let some people off and new people on. No more concerns about unsavory types riding along with you. A SkyTran vehicle travels overhead on a monorail freeway, safely above all other traffic and only exits this freeway to slow down and stop at your selected destination station. SkyTran is personalized Transit!

It is also important to note that your computer chauffeur will never be distracted by billboards, cell phone calls, conversation, reaching over to change music stations, etc. Nor will your chauffeur ever be driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

If you still are skeptical about SkyTran and unsure about such terms as "Offline," "Portals," "On-demand," "Non-stop," "3D Crossovers," etc. we invite you to view our compelling Kiddy Train analogy. Simple and definitely fun!

The above Photo Tour shows the generic two place SkyTran vehicle. However, just as there are many different types of vehicles on the roads, there will be numerous types of SkyTran vehicles as described below.

Pure cargo vehicles with 500 pound payload
Companies such as UPS, FedEx, the Post Office and numerous couriers would own and use these vehicles for fast, efficient parcel pick-up. routing and delivery on the SkyTran track system.

Group and Family Travel

Any combination of the above vehicles can be joined electronically, rather than mechanically, to travel along as if it was one single vehicle. Occupants of all vehicles in such a convoy will all be able to continuously communicate with each other with both audio and visual systems.
SkyTran enables you to customize the capacity needed at any moment to the size of your group. It is nonsense and very inefficient to own more than one large vehicle (such as a 7 passenger van or SUV) that will seldom be used at its full capacity and at the same time has occasional inadequate capacity.
