<p>There is technology where you chill down powerful electric conduits and transmit large amounts of power in cyro.</p><p>If you could demo the existing long haul towers, pack those awful cables away and transmit power under the Maglev in Cyro for very long distances you will probably benefit.</p><p>In my area, we are suffering thefts of copper wire that recently shut down a substation for a few hours and caused about 150 K in damage. If all of that is cyro cooled and buried instead we might not have these problems.</p><p>My biggest attraction for maglev is to have it go from any Class A airport to any other airport and large cities with scheduled travel times equal to or exceeding that of a Boeing 737 including 2 hours security boarding and one hour deplaning. I advocate these trains because I sense this will provide an alternative in bad weather and possibly render some short haul routes irrevelant and too slow. (Possibly expensive fares to fly)</p>
