Can This Fuel-Free Train Really Fly

But why??????. A traditional train is probably more efficient by like orders of magnitude
@elrik.suti♥ 79042025-12-26
Damn, they made Trains dangerous. Nice job!
@carlo_madoglio♥ 36122025-12-26
Keep optimising it and you and up with a regular train
@el.puto.wesos♥ 32142025-12-26
Let the rich try it first
@hurricanes_fan97♥ 17312025-12-26
NOOO!!!
For one, they are WAYYY too big to get to that speed, and depending on what material is used it couldn’t get airborne.
Not to mention how inefficient it is, to produce the amount of electricity to power it and get to seed, you WILL NEED either nuclear power or coal or gas power.
Are we just repeating the 50-70 “future transportation” ideas again?

That's just a train with extra steps.
@oskyyr♥ 4842025-12-26
A few ideas. Remove the wings, shorten the electricity cabel and move it above the main container, have multiple wagon like metal boxes and one which uses powerline above track to pull the wagons.
@cam_krat♥ 4412025-12-26
Those wings, unless i am missing something, don’t look ideal for 600 kph.

As a hang glider pilot who also gets towed up, flying near the ground while tethered to a line is the most dangerous period of the tow. There are so many wind currents and thermals and drafts so my opinion is that this would be a bad idea.

A fuel free electric transport solution that carriers thousands of people? Bro just invented the electric train 😂

All the advantages of a train with the disadvantages of low flying. Love it! Can’t wait for one downdraft to put this bad boy in the side of the mountain. Oh and because it’s always in a line above the critical infrastructure it’ll crash into that. One crash and the entire project is done.

This plane would be subject to dangerous weather and elements that normal airliners avoid by flying above the clouds. Unless you could make a tether that’s 30k feet long and can withstand the tugging.

I love how humanity does all that dümb sh1t just to not use the hood German maglev😭💀 humanity is so lost
@kabilan_the_scientist2026-02-04
There is one glaring weakness to why this can't work in its current form. We'd need atleast two seperate rails with two seperate connections each able to withstand the full lift of that thing in a storm. Also a way to land on flat track.

How fast is that in normal people units?
