E-Train

"'This train is a gift to Empire City. To get people out of their gas guzzlers and accepting of clean, affordable transportation, it has to be perfect.'"The E-Train, short for Empire Train, is a form of public transportation in Empire City. The nickname for is rails is the Super Rail.

History
The train was launched in November of 2015.

Design
The E-Train magnetically levitates, is automated, and the lack of friction allows the train to reach speeds of 500 kilometers an hour. Scientists worked three years to push it to 450, and it occurred to them that if they used hafnium instead of tungsten alloy in the vacuum tubes, they could decrease the weight of each car by 30 kilos and get it to 500.

The train also uses an electromagnetic propulsion system, making it ultra-smooth and zero-friction.

The mag-coils are kept from overheating because of liquid helium, no hazardous byproduct.
