    Aerotrain, holy crap

    Crazy hovercraft rocket/jet propelled monorail from the 70s





    270mph max speed, not bad for 1975

    Maglev systems are much faster and more efficient now, but come on... that's cool.

    I dunno about anyone else but I can't even use youtube these days, all their videos load slower than molasses rolling down a hill in the middle of july.
