Maglev Movie Monday

All,
Its been a few slow weeks in the MAGLEV world so heres another set of youtube videos to enjoy.


Neil Cummings (President American Magline Group spoke at High Speed Rail Tour 2010.  Here are the powerpoint slides about the CA/NV project and the entire overview.
(Part 1)

(Part 2)



Karl Frank with Hirschfeld Industries discusses Guideway Capital Costs.  Also video showing the milling of the beam from Max Bogel, and new guideway design.
(Part 1)

(Part 2)



Here is a newer Shanghai video that was uploaded this month.  Not anything vital, however you do get to see the conductor operating the safety buttons for the automatic doors (around :50) and it appears that they are doing some repair work on the other track and switch to the maintenance bay as you can see support vehicles (with sheds on flatbed trucks around 2:30).  Be advised that there is mild techno music playing though out the entire video.




Keep Flying On The Ground!
