By guest blogger, Stan Thompson The Centre for Railway Research and Education at the University of Birmingham, UK, hosts this year’s International Hydrail Conference (IHC) on 3 and 4 July and the trend is clearly toward putting hydrogen on the main line. Hosting the Hydrail Conference in the UK was the idea of U. Birmingham […]
Continue Readingby guest blogger Stan Thompson The 7th International Hydrail Conference (“7IHC”) will be held one week later than originally planned so that conferees at an important German rail conference can attend both events. During the 20th century, coal-fired steam locomotives gave way to diesel and external electric traction power. Now, in the 21st, diesel and […]
Continue ReadingI’ve talked several times in the past about hyrail (or the Hydrogen Hi-Speed Rail Super Highway “H2RSH” as some are now calling it) by Interstate Traveler. In my past conversations with hyrail’s creator Justin Sutton, he indicated that the first hydrogen high-speed rail system may actually begin somewhere in Indonesia, where the need and political […]
Continue ReadingA couple of days ago I talked about Interstate Traveler’s maglev Hyrail system and its creator Justin Sutton. Yesterday I had the pleasure of speaking with Mr. Sutton and follow up with him on some of the details of his cutting edge solar and hydrogen powered elevated rail train. One of the core pieces to […]
Continue ReadingThe hyrail project is a BIG IDEA that I’ve talked about before in March 2009. Justin Sutton with Interstate Traveler has come up with a grand idea for a disruptive maglev light rail system that is powered by solar and hydrogen that will change the way people travel forever. This 200 mph Hyrail Hydrogen Superhighway […]

One answer, in addition to building new cars, is to put the autoworkers to task building a solar and hydrogen powered light railway MagLev system from Detroit to Lansing, Michigan. The Interstate Traveler Company LLC, would be putting […]
Continue ReadingThanks over to our friends at Inhabitat for alerting me of this story. The Interstate Traveler Company is developing a solar-hydrogen powered MagLev (magnetic levitation) rail system that will mean zero emissions for public transportation. The idea is to built this MagLev railway system “along the right of way of the US Interstate Highway Systems” […]
