  • Rail transportation system and method of constructing same
    Publication number: 20060278121
    Abstract: A transportation system including two spaced parallel guide ways on which tracks are mounted for receiving vehicles. At least one beam extends between the guide ways for absorbing torsional forces caused by the composite centers of gravity of the vehicles being offset from the tracks.

  • Rail transportation system
    Publication number: 20060243156
    Abstract: A transportation system including a guide way defining multiple surfaces, each extending at an angle to the ground and at least one track mounted on one of the surfaces. A vehicle is adapted for movement along the guide way and is adapted to engage a corresponding track on the one surface when the vehicle is moving along the guide way in one direction and is adapted to engage a corresponding track on another surface when the vehicle is moving along the guide way in another direction.
