As the various hovertrain systems were developing, a major issue cropped up in terms of energy use.
Through 1964 the team built a 1/2 scale model of a small hovertrain, and a 3 km long track to test it on.
A 1960 Popular Mechanics article notes a number of different groups proposing a hovertrain concept.
There are three tickets here on the midnight hovertrain to Mtumwaport.
Otis Hovair system is the only hovertrain concept seeing commercial service.
The crew of Serenity take on a hovertrain heist commissioned by a sinister crime lord.
The Aérotrain was a Hovertrain developed in France from 1965 to 1977.
In the case of a hovertrain design, the losses are increasing with speed, which means that an increasing amount of air has to be ingested.
The most advanced example of this was the Aérotrain, an experimental high speed hovertrain built and operated in France between 1965 and 1977.
A study by the UK Tracked Hovercraft Ltd. (see below) considered the energy use of a 40-ton 100-passenger hovertrain.
This led to a variety of "hovertrain" proposals during the 1960s, including England's Tracked Hovercraft and France's Aérotrain.
In either case, only magnets in the immediate vicinity of the train would have to be turned on, which appeared to offer much lower overall energy needs than the hovertrain.
BR lost interest in the hovertrain concept, and moved on to their Advanced Passenger Train (APT) efforts shortly thereafter.
The group at Hovercraft Development applied the LIM concept to their hovertrain almost immediately after the LIM became well known around 1961.
(Section), "Track Section Chosen for UK Hovertrain", Flight International Air-Cushion Vehicles supplement, 17 November 1967, pg.
But the flight went smoothly and he transferred on the hovertrain to the spaceport out in the harbor, streaking along the superconducting rails that levitated the train on a cushion of magnetic force.
Seeking to protect their investment, and finding little external funding, the NRDC decided to spin off the hovertrain group as Tracked Hovercraft Ltd. (THL).
The basic concept is the same as the classic hovertrain, but replaces the active hovercraft system of pumps and lift pads with wings, using the efficient generation of lift from the wing-in-ground-effect.
In the meantime, the Hythe team had no funds for the full-scale test system they were proposing, and complained at Hovershow that the French would be taking the lead in hovertrain development.
While the hovertrain was being developed, BR was running an extensive research project on the topic of high-speed wheeled trains at their newly opened British Rail Research Division in Derby.
General Kopyion showed little interest in the events of the civil war, even with confirmed reports of a hovertrain being hijacked and two female Academicians having their homes broken into and being raped by soldiers.
A hovertrain is a type of high-speed train that replaces conventional steel wheels with hovercraft lift pads, and the conventional railway bed with a paved road-like surface, known as the "track" or "guideway".
