Bullet-Trains will be available soon.

Ok thanks! Were looking for a large number of Bullet-Trains etc ready to hit the about-to-be-built national Rail-way system. Well were re-building it!

if you can we would like to order a diesel-electric train, it has to be able to carry heavy weights, run fast, and can handle a gradiend of 10(you can use the corksrew technology), power for the electricity will be handled by our own generators. we will buy the production rights if it suits our needs

could you please post the measurment things in metric unites? It is rare that a Swilatian citizen knows hom long feet and inches are.

We shall be buying 1000 Acela Express Trainsets to add to our rail-system in the east. The system only stretches through the eastern coastal region. We are yet to build an all over national rail system.

San Haven,
1000 Acela Train sets will cost $1.5 billion and will be delievered in 11 NS years. Thank you for you order!

Are they compatible with the steam ones?

Asbena, all of our products except the Maglev are compatable. They use the same track, couplers, and signaling systems.

I wonder if TGV's will ever be available?

Alright. :) I'll make a purchase soon.

Official Message To United Delta From Red Tide Goverment
"Which type of train would you suggest for hauling heavy duty military equipment and supplies? Infrastructure is not an issue."
End Message

Red Tide Goverment, (ooc: please ignore the TG)
There are three locomotives that would fit you requirements.
First, the SD70M-2. Perfect for any normal freight work and ease of maintainence. When extra power is needed, simply add multiple SD70's to the train.
Second, the DDA40X. Brute power makes it an excellent choice for pulling non-standard, heavy military loads. While they can be doubled or tripled up, their high horsepower makes this unnessesary in most casses. Shares many components with the SD70M-2 for ease of maintanence.
Third, the SW-1500. Perfect for yard work and easy to maintain.

ICCD has a special order request

We would like something with the work power of a locomotive. We would like it to be able to be run on roads.. we would also like to be able to securely fasten two different tools to the front of it both one of our heat/laser drill units and the other a high powered hightorque mechanical to act as a TBM tunnel borinng machine. We would like it to have retractable /tread/tire/railwheel units. and for it to be capable to pull both trailers overland and boxcars and such.

Could you do something like this and if so what is your price? if you could make a variety of the trailers for us both for seating, cargo and liquid, grain etc.. but the difference would be the cars would be adjustable to be tire/tread/railwheelframe each 'car' would also be independantly able to pull it's own weight i.e. drive itself much as a truck would. we would like the railwheels to be used as electromagnets as well both for emergency breaking and for use with our magnetic rail systems. also we would like the roofs of the rail cars to have solar pannleing where applicable to generate energy while they travel, and a battery of course.


ICCD will do it themselves however we thought we would give you the chance for the contract.

ICCD,
your request has been forwarded to our Custom Orders Department. They will consider it and reply. Thank you.

To Lionel

Hi,

I'm wondering if you've approved our custom order?

We would like to introduce a new version.
We would like it to be armed and armored for a military version.
We can provide you the details for the new custom Super Dreadnaught Tank.

Effectively we are looking for a small mini mobile station that can both transport a full base for deployment as well as act as a communications center etc.. and have plating, antipersonnel weapons and perhaps even some uav's and a helipad on the unit.

If you are able to fill part or all of this second custom order we look forward to potential partnership in this project.

IC:

Intracircumcordei,
As it turns out, we are getting ready to launch the new 'M-Series', which will feature military-equiped locomotives. Along with Pullman Railcar, we will also be offering different types of military rolling-stock. If none of these new products fit your needs, feel free to visit our Custom Orders Department (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread....3#post10715633). Thank you!


(ooc, new items will be up later today)

We look forward to seeing what your new offers are.

OOC: LOl thats amazing.

IC: Hotdogs2 would be interested in looking into buying from Lionel Electro-Motive Division Passenger trains for their railways. We would like to ask which we should choose for our passenger trains, Diesil or electric and what type, going by speed, economy and environmental friendliness.

Regards, Minister of Transport Mr. P.P Wells

Mr. P.P Wells,
Thank you for your interest. To answer your question, it depends on what your needs are.
-For highspeed express trains, electric is the way to go, provided that you have a stable power grid.
-The 'Acela Express Trainset' is top-of-the-line, but is limited in number of cars, where the GG1 is slower, but can handle a larger train.
-for slower and economical commuter trains, our F40PH is the perfect choice.
-If you want cross-country power, and F3 A-B-A set is perfect.
for moving people downtown in crowded cities, the MagLev system is the perfect solution, as it is above streets to save space and has no pollution.

Could you give us some estimated numbers for trains for transporting around 500million people each day, which includes the main metro's in the cities.

We want to revamp the railways and make them a viable military transport whilst doing so and so would like transport to be available to around 1million of our personell and equipment on armoured trains.

If a package to this end could be set up with around 50military depots we would greatly appreciate it.
