The skills, ideas, and the career experience in the Sky Train organization make us the Consultants of Choice!

Our Achievement!

We have absorbed the low cost qualities of light rail and re-organized them onto a patented new, high rider appeal icon, energy reclaiming, safest  monorail.

Now available with electric propulsion, diesel electric propulsion or with the new hybrid power plant systems etc.

Our OSLR system can carry freight, passengers or both. As of 2/8/2001, we have responded to close to 50 active requests for information half within the USA.

The permissible speed on curves of Sky Train's suspended system exceeds the permitted speed on curves of bottom supported systems by more then 300%.

i.e. When compared to a High Speed Tilt Train riding on a 6 degree superelevated rail netting 15 degrees using the motorized sensor controlled system. This rail designed system is limited to 160 mph when traveling the I-4 corridor in Florida. Compare this to Sky Train's limit of 32 degrees, equaling a speed on the same curve at 212 mph - without passengers feeling any unbalance.

Our steel wheel monorail, can carry heavier loadings, larger vehicles, consuming 1/5th the energy of motion of vehicles on rubber tires.  This as shown in our model, allows for reclaiming the energy of stopping by regeneration.

STC in addition to this aspect of consulting, Sky Train has a specific interest in promoting their patented new forms of rearranged standard rail components into an Overhead Light Rail System (OSLR). These were designed to offer the full transportation capacity and speeds of modern light rail and subway systems, gaining vast improvements in energy consumed, passenger comfort and safety, but not absorbing space on the ground nor requiring expensive tunnels underneath.
