Why trains, not flying cars, are the future of city transport? (Page 5)
If you imagined or rather to think about it, what will be our future transportation? In the future, everyone will zip around the city in flying cars. People will travel between home and travel in their own private pods. All these may seems unrealistic, now, the way cities are growing, there wont be space on the roads or even in the air for many cars. Instead, the future will arrive in trains. In Singapore, the future of transportoin is already here. It arrived 20 years ago. The first opening is at the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) on 7 November 1987 was a big event. Many people went to try it out on the first day. Already 20 years old, it may not seem like a technology forthe future. Without system like the MRT, big cites soon wont be able to function. |
