I don't have photos but I can describe it for you.
The new technology BRT cruises at 100-120 MPH, making a safe trip across the USA in under two days.
They come in four to six car configuration, carrying up to 250 passengers in the four car configuration.
They are generally diesel electric with electric drive and steering on the cars allowing for narrow lane following at high speeds.
They travel at high speeds on the digitally controlled super highways being planned in Nevada, Utah and California. But they can also travel narrow city streets.
The general trip is two days from San Francisco Market Street to downtown Manhattan.
Cargo versions of the vehicles are in high demand by Fedex and UPS.
Most importantly, the new super highway with congestion pricing will bring in multiple billions in income for states like Nevada and Utah. The new BRT technology will put any Bay Area ,CA resident within 20
minutes of BART, lowering the average commute time across the Bay Area to an hour. The new technology can move goods across the LA basin in one or two hours, point to point. Airlines will see their market share drop by 20% as this technology steals increasing passengers from air flight.
I predict that most super highways, with digital control, will pay for themselves within two years from construction because of lower costs in reusing existing asphalt lanes.
