The conceptual 'Spacetrain' maglev train system has been designed by Darina Shi as a rendering of what we might see in the near future as we transition away from higher energy consumption transportation towards more efficient alternatives.
The train draws design inspiration from a stingray with its mouth and fin-like finishes, and would measure 25 meters and 3.4 meters in width. The train would move through a Hyperloop-like tunnel that would work to reduce wind resistance to further enhance efficiency and speed, while also allowing passengers inside to enjoy panoramic views.
The conceptual 'Spacetrain' maglev train system is imagined with ample space on the interior cabin that would provide passengers with space to relax during their short rides.
