EDITORS COMMENTS
This diagram by Swiss inventor Emile Bachelet, dated 1914, presents a revolutionary concept for magnetic levitated trains, or maglev trains, designed primarily for the swift transportation of mail at an impressive speed of 300 miles per hour. The innovative design, which was ahead of its time, envisioned a train that would be lifted into the air without touching the ground, relying solely on the power of magnet propulsion. The railway line, as illustrated in the diagram, consists of a pair of rails, approximately 35 feet long, laid over a series of coils or bobbins. These coils, intended by Bachelet, would generate a magnetic field strong enough to levitate the train above the track. The train itself would be equipped with magnets that would interact with the magnetic field created by the coils, allowing it to hover and move with minimal friction. Bachelet's invention, which was a precursor to modern maglev technology, was a testament to his forward-thinking approach to transportation. Although the commercial implementation of maglev trains would not come to fruition until several decades later, Bachelet's diagram offers a fascinating glimpse into the future of transportation technology. The potential benefits of maglev trains, including reduced environmental impact, increased efficiency, and the ability to reach higher speeds, make this an intriguing and important invention in the annals of transportation history.
