CHASSIS and BODY STRUCTURE
SKELETAL
VIEWS
This is a Schematic illustration
showing how rubber tire vehicle rides on track. The Chassis uses horizontal guide wheels to keep the vehicles between the
tracks.
Switching is accomplished by
a flat plate for the
tire to roll across and an arm rotating down to grab side of track. Propulsion
is planned as electric motor for local loops and linear induction
propulsion for long distance. The Chassis will
probably contain some emergency batteries.
