Transportation in the future…this is Incredible

As usual, the comments in regards to scientific debates, breakthroughs and theories are very spirited.  Here are some of the commenters’ responses after watching the video.

Commener Joshie states:

“Could trains replace planes as the long distance transportation of choice?” Maybe, IF THEY COULD GO ACROSS LARGE AMOUNTS OF SEA WITHOUT WASTING BILLIONS ON THOUSAND MILE BRIDGES!!!

Then in the thread commenter Mystikan adds:

Actually, one of the “trains” shown in this video could cross the sea, much more cheaply and efficiently than aircraft. A vehicle similar to the train with wings that flies on the ground-effect, has already been built by the Russians years ago: they call it an ekranoplan, or ground-effect plane (google it). Such a vehicle could skim across the sea like a very low-flying aircraft, come ashore at a designated point, and drop onto the air-guided railway to complete its journey over land.
It’s always good to see inquiring minds in regards to these types of inventions.  What would you want to see in an efficient improvement or advancement in regards to current transportation?  A super fast train, a different type of car or something else?
