Futuristic Train (Proof Revealed)

by **-BHZMAFIA-** on Mon Jun 20, 2005 10:37 am

I was flipping through the channels and when I past the Discovery Channel, I saw this thing about a train that suppose to be built where you can travel from New York to England underground through the water in a 45 minute time spread. The reason why they said they are making it is because most people can't afford those airplane jets to fly in, so the way it will be setup is that it will start like in a subway in New York and it leads to underwater where the train will be in some type of tube and the train suppose to travel at 1200 mph. The train won't be on the tracks when traveling either, it will be a couple inches off the track to cause a very smooth riding distance so it will be like your just standing up and you will feel nothing. In the tube, it will also have some type of air vacuums so people will be able to breathe. When I saw this I was amazed by the technology and I don't know when it will be finished with it, but I expect it to take a long time because NY to England is quite a long distance and just to think that it takes me 45 minutes to travel to some places in the areas around Memphis. If anybody else seen this or heard about this then see if you can find some more info on it.

Good god. I'm thinking at least 15 years before it actually exists.

How the hell do they make something like that :?:

Not the train, the underwater tunnel... :?:

they used scubba dive construction workers :lol:

ahh the advancement of technology...i am a train guy mind you...i like trains.... 8-)

Who likes trains? I mean whats there to like about trains, they just a bunch of scrap metal with seats that have wheels and move...

they're much cheaper and faster form of transpo compare to bringing my car to city to city.

that's why i like em (Y)

Yeh good point, but I dont care bout that yet coz my mum and dad pay for gas not me

Judging by the way the Discovery Channel was talking, it will be alot cheaper on that train from NY to England that it would be flying. I guess because they think not that many people will actually ride on it because just thinking about it sounds scary :lol:

I kind of feel sorry for the people that will work on it because there will most likely be alot of people dying from this project. What if a Shark or something bust one of the tubes :shock:

since it will be running through the ocean

many poeple die in contructing the many architechtural wonders we have today.....it's part of the job description.that is why we finished our degree in school to avoid being a laborer....atleast the hazards are less...i am one of those poeple who will not be scared about this train project.....if soon entire continents will be inter connected thru train and road systems...i'll be a happy man 8-)

I think that's called Maglev... or it isnt...

I've heard this before too though, but on History Channel..lol

I want to be the first person to make a baby on that train

Imagine crashing into a whale or something... that'd be kinda messed up.

Its not possible.. If its going to be underground, from england to the US, it'll have to have the supports at the bottom of the ocean.

Problem with that is no one or anything has ever reached the very bottom of the ocean due to the compression that can crush solid steel.

Well I'm pretty sure they will have some type of technology to where they can go that far because they shouldn't be that stupid to not know if they can go down there without major protection, that's how I know many people will die from the project if it happens. If people die from building skyscrapers, just imagine how many will die on this thing.

Just send a bunch of black people to make it.

Or send you, wisdom kid and the dude in the "holy shit" thread to do it because no one would care if yall were to work on it :lol:

agreed i cracked up.. although they'll probably use asian workers too.. which means it'll be completed since asians aren't very good with water.

by **Riot** on Tue Jun 21, 2005 8:13 am

Just give the workers some water-rings and a hammer and it'll get done.

by **-BHZMAFIA-** on Tue Jun 21, 2005 8:36 am

And what makes people think Blacks are good with water

Most likely there will be 90% white workers down there getting killed :lol:

because europeans love water. Riot since you want to serve the country so bad, you should do it and that way you will be helping the country by completed this big project and dying at the same time

by **Riot** on Tue Jun 21, 2005 9:06 am

Hell no. Building a big terrorist target where thousands will die eventually? Hell no. It's better if it isn't built.

And if you are going to Europe and you can't afford a plane ticket you shouldn't go anyways. And I don't want those Euros coming over here.
