The development of rail transport

Abstract

In the 19-th century, people wanted to create a machine that would help transporting goods and passengers to long distances. In the 20-th century, people wanted to improve the engine to make it more effective and faster. Such solution became diesel engine and diesel-train. The goal of 21-st century is to make transport less polluting and noiseless. This solution has already been found by making Maglevs, though there are some drawbacks that have to be reduced.
