This is a brilliant idea. Mostly for Europe right now, because America has not really bought into the benefits of high speed trains. As the population grows, we really won’t be able to get around with cars. There are many cities that are stuck in the American Graffiti era (LA I’m talking to you), where cars are a symbol of ones wealth, individualism, status etc… It isn’t practical, and this video really shows the true benefit of a free flowing train system. It saves you TIME!!!! That is something we will all need more of as technology continues to progress.

Here is another idea that is slightly less idealistic, because the transfer cars don’t get off the main line, but it does allow for the high speed train to stop much less frequently.
