System information is listed under Characteristics of STC OSLR.
Our Achievement! We have absorbed the low cost qualities of light rail and re-organized them onto a new, high rider appeal, monorail icon. Now available with electric propulsion, diesel electric propulsion or with the new hybrid power plant systems etc. Our OSLR system can carry freight, passengers or both. As of 2/8/2001, we have responded to close to 50 active requests for information half within the USA. The permissible speed on curves of Sky Train's suspended system exceeds the permitted speed on curves of bottom supported systems by more then 60%. i.e. On a 2 degree curve, on a mainline Railway, permitted speed is 60 mph; riders feeling a lateral force of .07 g. Compare this to Sky Train's speed on the same curve at 100 mph - without passengers feeling any unbalance. Our steel wheel monorail, can carry heavier loadings, larger vehicles, consuming 1/5th the energy of motion of vehicles on rubber tires.
