Even people talking endlessly on the phone can get you to move to a quiet carriage in a train but although you are a bit trapped on a bus perhaps you could go upstairs/downstairs to avoid it on a double decker. How would you sound proof a double deck bus If the noise appears to annoy people the bus...

There should be a rule about decibel level when it comes to passengers with Bluetooth speakers and other non headphone/ear pod methods when it comes to listening to music as one persons type of music wouldn't be everybody's cup of tea Even people talking endlessly on the phone can get you to move t...

If oil reaches $200 a barrel connecting Parrahub to Melbourne may have to pay tax if it earns over 10%. https://capital.com/will-oil-hit-200-what-effect-would-that-have-on-markets#:~:text=Oil%20at%20%24200%20per%20barrel,the%20global%20economy%20into%20stagflation.

As there would be CCTV cameras to show police even if they sat there like little angels when the police stopped the Trailerbus it would all be on tape. Yes drivers are different, but I doubt a driver would switch on the blue light unless they saw trouble brewing and they could always switch it off ...

Not quite sure what you mean but the Opal reader could either be at suburb stops like the tram or on the bus and would be checked by inspectors. As it would be frequent main road runs I cannot see the driver having any problem remembering the route. Don’t forget CCTV everywhere and a blue light the...

As the Trailerbus can easily take wheelchairs and bikes nobody would get stuck at a station when the rail fails.

There are advantages and disadvantages with owner drivers but do people think it would be a good idea with the Trailerbus? Here is an American bus owner driver https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMaWbFhQ9UE Maybe if some layovers surrounding Parrahub can charge while the owner driver goes home it may ...

After watching Sabine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNBLhGsjHQI I think most people will use electric bikes and leave the petrol car at home so they will definitely need the Trailerbus to get across town.

These trailer buses would need to be placed on permanent set number of routes so the driver can get his/her head around where all the turns are then that would include trailers with real time passenger tracking that would note how many passengers are on board at anytime and real time alighting and ...

With so many wheels the electric Trailerbus has a range of 1,000 km plus twice the capacity of any other bus while taking bikes etc. if we are prepared to stick our neck out a tad we may be laughed at but it may be a goer time will tell. Regarding split shifts like this bus driver who pulled the pin...

Wikipedia claims they fell out of favor because of. The length of trailer buses made them difficult to negotiate sharp turns at narrow street corners; Each trailer bus normally required a two-person crew, with the driver in the tractor and the conductor in the semi-trailer; The perceived danger of a...

One day when it is done overseas Australia will do it, we talk a lot about innovation but like to cover our backside mate.

This trailer bus idea would work under my main roads idea where most of the roadside infrastructure will be 15 story buildings that will include 300 units and a 2 level shopping centre per buildings The Trailerbus can be used for buildings on the main road it is really to take bikes so people can r...

If 30 separate companies spend $2b each to connect Parrahub to Melbourne via Canberra and Albury then I believe it would be fair they do not pay any tax until they earn a certain amount per annum but it would be up to the federal government how much that would be to encourage investment. By having t...

Although the ground is soft at Snowy 2 as a layman with a great interest in TBM I cannot understand why they went like a bull at a gate rather than probing ahead and stabilizing it before they tried driving it. Was the TBM pilot inexperienced because from what I have seen and read it was capable of ...

Connecting Parrahub to Melbourne via Canberra and Albury would be just as expensive these days even though it would be driven in two years it so it really is up to the Australian population if they want it or not.

Latest Snowy 2 update https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXovDgyULQg&t=2s and I saw 12 empty segment trucks heading east.

Yes,some people like the slow train but do not waste any money on making it a bit faster because the 700 km/h underground one will never get built and China is ready to make high tech stuff with the unemployed graduates now.

It would only take 20 minutes in a profitable Japanese SC maglev.
Any money spent on surface rail is wasted money.

Looking at Eddy's crystal ball I see. The Australian bus and truck/trailer industry being protected by keeping the 2.5 meter wide rule. Freight going between big cities at least 1,000 km apart in containers to be taken from the freight siding to customer with electric semis. 1,000 km range electric ...
