Split Level Streetcars

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Rail Whale Tram Supports a Great Passenger Capacity

— August 9, 2011 — Autos
Where many international cities have embraced double decker buses and split-level train coaches, the incorporation of truly spacious streetcars into existing transit systems is still a new idea. In the discussion of a concept like the Rail Whale Tram, it's worth noting that in many cases, this means of metropolitan public transit often battles busy street traffic amidst a gridlock of automobiles.

Grzegorz Rozwadowski is thus quite clever to suggest increasing the capacity of such conveyances as to lessen the need for so many drivers on the road, and to perhaps reduce the frequency of streetcars en route. These 110-person cabs will never leave impatient passengers waiting on the corner for the next Rail Whale Tram with empty seats, and the hybrid electric engine makes this robust system nearly guilt-free.
Trend Themes
1. Double Decker Public Transit - The trend of incorporating spacious double decker vehicles into existing transit systems presents opportunities for increased passenger capacity and reduced traffic congestion.
2. Hybrid Electric Engines - The trend of utilizing hybrid electric engines in public transit vehicles offers the potential for more environmentally-friendly transportation options.
3. Capacity Optimization in Transit - The trend of increasing the capacity of public transit vehicles enables the optimization of resources and reduces the need for additional drivers.
Industry Implications
1. Urban Transportation - The urban transportation industry can leverage the trend of incorporating double decker vehicles and capacity optimization to improve efficiency and user experience.
2. Automotive - The automotive industry can explore opportunities in the development and adoption of hybrid electric engines for public transit vehicles.
3. Smart City Solutions - The smart city solutions industry can contribute to the trend by providing technological advancements that support the integration and management of double decker public transit systems.
