INFRAMAG  for the f​uture transport

InfraMag eller Hyperloop

Both trains have their advantages and there are common similarities but also of course completely different characteristics.

InfraMag
More similar to the regular trains, but run on pillar tracks above the ground and rest on a permanent magnet bed. You travel from city center to city center and can also enter regular stations and then exit on the magnetic track again. You constantly see the surroundings that you drive through and can enjoy nature and the external environment. You travel at a maximum speed of 400 km/h.

Fast killers and light trains and you have all the service you could ask for. You have an internet connection and in some carriages places that are intended to be able to sit and work while you move. There are also opportunities for meeting rooms in certain trains and train lines. Likewise, there may be playgrounds for the children during the trip. You can also take a bicycle with you if there is space in your carriage.

Hyperloop 
Without a doubt, speed is the main advantage of the hyperloop. You may be traveling at 6 - 700 km/h. You travel enclosed in a basically large tube because the air is sucked out to reduce the headwind. You see nothing of the surroundings that you pass through. You only see the departure terminal and the arrival terminal. You also do not enter the city center, but you depart from and arrive at special arrival terminals, usually outside the center of the urban area.

Note; Do you want to be sent like a package in a tube without having contact with external values at a speed of maybe 7-800 km/h instead of traveling at 400 km/h and you experience the beautiful nature that you travel through. It is you as the consumer who decides. Is the speed increase of 3-400 km per hour really worth sacrificing contact with reality?

How can InfraMag and Hyperloppen be adapted to Swedish conditions? 

Sweden is a relatively hilly country and adapting a railway line in the country requires great flexibility to be able to adapt the route to the country and society. We go through what applies to InfraMag and Hyploop respectively.

InfraMag

The InfraMag trains basically work like a regular train, but even better. Copes with greater gradients compared to the normal railway. Copes with smaller curve radii as the trains are held in place by the steering bogie and magnetic fields that hold the trains in place. The trains also cannot derail, which is why no accidents can be feared for that reason. InfraMag is significantly safer than today's rail transport.

Hyperloop

The Hyperloop really requires open landscapes and is best suited in a desolate desert. It has a curve radius of 30,000 m, which everyone understands that there are no possibilities to adapt the hyperloop to Swedish conditions. This of course also applies vertically, which is why height adaptation to the technology, and our Swedish landscape, is next to impossible to implement.

Is it dangerous to ride with InfraMag or the Hyperloop?

InfraMag

With InfraMag, you travel more safely compared to today's trains. It cannot derail and you ride quietly and comfortably and see the nature that you pass through. You get a transport experience and you feel completely safe riding the trains. You also get from the center to the center and no transit trips are needed. 

Hyperloop

You go fast but you don't see anything of the nature that you pass. You sit inside a capsule with no contact with the landscape outside. You ride in a tube that is placed under vacuum and you can do the same with the flight where you also ride in a capsule that has a pressurized cabin to compensate for the thinner lifting condition that prevails outside the cabin. ​But you see the landscape outside the window. The same thing must happen with the Hyper loop regarding the pressure cabin. It will be traveling in a pressurized train in the tube that makes up the transport line.

Is it risk free? No absolutely not! Should a drop in pressure occur due to a leak occurring in the transport capsule, it could result in all the passengers dying immediately! If you don't have time to put on the oxygen mask that must automatically fall down to save the lives of the passengers. That such accidents will happen cannot be ignored. It will happen and the accident rate among the passengers will be very high!
