Like London to Paris undersea high-speed rail travel, Indians may also soon enjoy underwater ‘floating rail’ travel between UAE’s Fujairah town and Mumbai.
UAE-based company National Advisor Bureau plans to build an underwater rail network between UAE and Mumbai in the near future to provide high-speed rail travel between the two countries.
Alshehhi, Founder (National Advisor Bureau Limited) said, “This is a concept. We plan to connect Indian city of Mumbai with Fujairah through ultra-speed floating trains. The project aims to boost bilateral trade.”
Floating trains or ‘Maglev’ use magnet repulsion system to move the ‘train’ at a great speed taking advantage of the lack of friction.
The total distance of the rail network between the two cities will be less than 2,000 kms.
