Shanghai Translohr Tram, Guided Bus

[@Timsvideochannel1]

Hi Luke, nice one. Shanghai loves innovation, I was fascinated by the capacitor buses, like a trolley bus without wires, at each stop it makes contact with power bars above to charge the capacitors. London still uses diesel buses, I can't help thinking these capacitor buses would suit most large cities with short distances between each stop. I'll look out for the trams on my next visit to Shanghai. This link gives details of the Capa buses in Shanghai .... capacitorsen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capa_vehicle ..... Tim.

In Copenhagen we´re testing a type of these buses(from Finish Linkker), with charging stations at every terminus instead of every stop. Securing flexibility. ing.dk/sites/ing/files/styles/w1120_media_right/public/07-dsc02022.jpg?itok=_e56SQ7v

I hope the tests are successful, as this has to be the best way forward for city buses and maybe a hybrid version for buses that continue well beyond the city limits.

I got one 700m away from my house :D

En France chez nous les Translohr ont leurs propre piste dédier à eux. Et les voitures n'y circules pas avec eux à Clermont-Ferrand.

Hola desde francia !

[@SchioAlves]

I really wanna know how it works and how it doesn't derails!

[@IvanSantanaEu]

Do mesmo jeito que um trem, só que com um trilho somente como guia para os pneus de borracha. É um sistema barato e ineficiente e os gringos parecem não gostar porque o veículo sacode devido ao efeito corda causado pela ligação entre os vagões. Eles preferem com trilho de metal porque balança menos porém é mais barulhento e trepida mais.

[@JaiD0427]

It runs on regular tyres. The track is for guidance..

So ein möchte ich gerne Mal selber. Fahren

In Australia Melbourne we had tram

[@victorianrichard8097]

That’s the zhangjiang tram line in shanghai

[@emmanuelqg8260]

que lindo tranvía por dentro

[@timosha21]

same exact ones as in Paris! I found these types of trams to be a bit ridiculous!

[@joon3900]

the area is very hilly, rubber tires can scale them more easily

[@SYD_DAVIS]

日本にも、こういうのあれば良かっただろうにね。

広島　富山　福井　長崎　鹿児島　豊橋　札幌　熊本　岡山　松山　高知　東京　大阪　京都　北九州　に似たようなのあるよ まあ全部路面電車の改良型なんだけどね(笑)

[@SYD_DAVIS]

佐藤ヴァース でも、ゴムタイヤは使用してませんよね。 乗り心地の良さは、ゴムタイヤトラム・ゴムタイヤ式列車に勝らないけど…

[@varth3287]

剛田さとし まあゴムタイヤは新交通や地下鉄以外ではなかなかみないしね。 ただ費用とか考えると、鉄輪は一度削ればそこそこ持ちますけど、ゴムタイヤは削れたら付け替えないといけませんからね。

[@SYD_DAVIS]

佐藤ヴァース まぁゴムタイヤ式にしろ、鉄車輪式にしろ何でも利点ばかりには出来ませんからね。 あと愛知では万博と共に生まれた磁気浮上式もあるが、アレは世界的に見られてたらどうだったんだろうか…

[@varth3287]

リニモですか? 「あれほどの物どうせ作るんなら名古屋まで作れよ」と当時思いましたね とはいえいいアピールになったのでは?客の多さに耐えきれずに動かなかったことがあったっぽいけども。

[@IvanSantanaEu]

Monorail FTW. If you don't like its bumps, use Maglev systems.

Alors il y a un tram avec des pneus ? Tiré avec un rail central ? HAHAHAHAHAHA !!!

Fou ? Fou ? Ton emoticone est fou :D :D :D :D :D ?

[@NeoDerGrose]

Translohr is the shittiest tram system I've ever ritten. There's just one real advantage over normal trams and that's the capability of a greater inclination. But that's only good if you use it. I've been on the one in Paris (or actually just outside of Paris) and it's not steep at all. What it is on the other hand is largely uncomfortable to ride because of the bumps in it's track. This is caused by the gaps between the concrete parts they used. But even if you use gapless pavement it would still be awful. It will develop waves, especially in the area around stops or crossings. You can see that on highly used bus stops as well. But with Translohr it's much worst because all the wheel of all the trains hit the exact same track over and over again. Mercedes once developed a guided bus system (which was also shitty) and they started to use steel instead of concrete. But that will provide less traction, especially when getting wet. So you would loose the only advantage this system has.

[@Chopy61]

There are other tired systems (monorails, people movers) that I've heard have a better ride quality. I'm guessing it's because of the type of concrete they use.

[@Sylvere21]

Look at the tramway in Nancy (France) and Caen (France) and reconsider what you said 😂😂

[@stephenlaarkamp7344]

@@Sylvere21 four years later, and Caen got fed up with the derailment problems and non-standard nature of it and replaced it with a regular tram and Nancy is getting rid of theirs this year and replacing them with trolley busses. Seems it has been considered and rejected.
