MON-RAIL/MAGLEV makes great reading but its higly impractical, It may look good around Disney World epcot center or Disneyland. there are some dreamers here in Colorado who woud have the tax payers of Colorado ante up billions on a science fiction dream. This pipe dream would be a Mag/lev-monorail to carry skiers and other winter sports nuts from Denver International Airport via a parelell route of the current I-70 to the vail beaver creek resort. The grades would be even daunting to regular railroad engineers. Plus how would this technology not tried in moutains, handle adverse snows blizzards and avalanches. I been to seattle, and their almost fifty year old mono-is a slow joke. The mag lev monorail technology so far is great for short flat distances. and not distane of twenty five miles or more. Lets do more research and improvement on standard rail technology
