Arrive at the station and board your train in luxury and wait a while it picks you
up leaves its transferable transporter behind with passengers. This fast train never stops as for intercontinental line it will make them faster more comfortable than most airlines. As many design variables the train slows to a very safe speed. This is a world where trains run continuously, picking up
passengers without ever having to waste time stopping and starting at
individual stations.
Journey between Beijing and Guangzhou there can be up to 30 stops adding hours in waiting times in the elements.That’s the vision behind this new concept created by
Chinese designer Chen Jianjun. Rather than waiting on a platform and filing
through the train’s series of narrow doors, passengers wait in a pod above the
tracks. As the train passes through the station, the pod locks onto the
roof of the train and the passengers descend down a staircase into the train
below. The concept was created by
Chinese designer Chen Jianjun. In a video describing the idea, passengers are
shown boarding a pod located on a platform above the train tracks, pictured. As
the train enters the station, the tracks dip and the train passes underneath
this pod. Here is how it all works as passengers wait in a heated pod on
an elevated platform at each station. As the train passes through the
station, this pod locks onto the front of the roof and passengers descend onto
the train.

The pod then moves to the rear of the roof to pick up passengers who
want to exit at the next stop. When the train arrives at the next stop,
the rear pod is detached and a new pod is collected. The cabin then moves to
the back of the train where people who want to exit at the next stop ascend
into the roof-top pod.
As the train approaches the next station, the pod
detaches and comes to a stop at the station, as the next pod is collected.
This example is to be built by Chinese, but according to a translated version,
the designer explains that on a journey between Beijing and Guangzhou there can
be up to 30 stops. If each stop takes approximately five minutes to drop off
and pick up passengers, this adds an extra 2 hours and 30 minutes to the
journey. Passengers can board the pod from either the front or the back using
smaller platforms. The doors close and the pod is fitted with seats, and a
hatch is built into the floor in the centre of cabin As the train passes
through the station, this elevated pod locks onto the front or centre of the
roof. Passengers then descend onto the train through a staircase Chinese
prototype for a train which never has to stop

In this image also explains that the concept would save energy and fuel
without having to stop and start each time
as this train that never stops moving. Concept for high-speed transport picks
up passengers in a pod as it zooms past a station The concept was
created by Chinese designer Chen Jianjun Passengers wait for the train
inside a pod located on an elevated platform.
As the train enters a station the pod locks onto the roof at the front. Passengers
descend into the train and the pod moves to the rear. People wanting to
exit the train at the next station then climb into the pod. The pod detaches as it enters this
stop, before collecting the next pod. Since the concept video emerged, a number
of other designers have also suggested that instead of a staircase, passengers
could slide down a chute onto a cushion in order to save even more time. The
concept does not explain how disabled people, or people who are unable to use
stairs, would use the system, for example, and there are also no plans to make
this concept a reality yet. This is a commuter vision of the future, as the
train zooms by; the pod detaches from the station and latches on to the train. The
concept does not explain how disabled people, or people who are unable to use
stairs, would use the system, for example, and there are also no plans to make
this concept a reality yet.
