MAGLEV COBRA
The cities are suffering from the increasing number of cars, which pollute the environment . The demand for the subway is growing , although the cost of construction of underground roads is very high and demands a long time.
A mass public transport vehicle operating with magnetic levitation of superconductors, which travels on elevated track, not interfering with the traffic flow of large cities with clean operation, no noise and with great reliability and modular, allowing for expansion easily to meet demand fluctuations.
The Meissner effect occurs when a superconductor is cooled to -200 degrees Celcius (-300F) using liquid nitrogen. The Superconductor Levite without any other action. The Maglev Cobra started from a simple question: What if we paste a train over a big superconductors?
