THE NEED FOR A PURE SOLID STATE TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM
By now you can see we are absolutely insistent on a solid state
transportation system. We feel it is
foolish to pursue anything with gears, wheels and tires that continuously
wear out and require never ending money for replacement, especially when the
proper MagLev technology seems within our grasp.
THE NEED FOR HIGH VOLUME MASS PRODUCTION
Our system will require many, many small light vehicles. This means
huge economies of scale in manufacturing mass production can eventually be
realized. The MagLev levitation; the forward propulsion; the braking; the
dynamic stability and damping; and exit lane and merging lane control must
be entirely within the capability of each vehicle since they will be running
around all over the grid independently just like private automobiles.
