    Incline railway/boat lift
    2007-12-12 20:59:42
    Since we're on a roll again with boat transport methods, here's an interesting site. It is only in French or Dutch, but the pictures and panoramic view pretty much show the deal. Sail a couple of boats into a large "tub" of water, then raise it up the side of a hill :-) Make sure and check the photo gallery for some in-use pictures in addition to some closeups of a model version.

    Indian Railway goes Crazy-Adds Extra Berths
    2007-12-03 21:54:00
    I happened to read a news article in Mint Newspaper which was lying on the floor inside Bangalore airport last night. While I have several other posts lined up I felt this news deserves some attention.Indian Railways has decided to increase the capacity of its train by around 12% by introducing an additional berth in the coaches. It is difficult to describe in words how they are planning to implement the same. Refer the image below for current seating layout and new layout. (S=Seat, B= Berth)In other words, a third berth will be introduced in between existing 2 berths on the side seats. This extra passenger will be sharing seats with either of the three passengers as shown in the diagram. Reportedly this idea of increasing the capacity has been accepted to generate more revenue by carrying more passengers in same number of trains, so that the need to increase ticket fare will be eliminated.This move is guaranteed to cause more and more inconvenience to the passengers who will have to share their seats and luggage space with the extra traveler. Indian Railways is implementing this without taking passengers into confidence and without studying the feasibility (by experimenting the same in say one or two trains)Pros:1. More passengers in same space-More revenue, no need to hike fares. (This only postpones price hike for few months or years-Doesn't ensure that ticket fare will never be hiked.)2. Its better to travel somehow than not travel at all (due to non availability of seats)Lot of people are desparate to travel and sleep on floors or wherever there's space. It might be good idea to accomodate them somehow, even if it means inconvenience to others. (If I or You happen to be one of those desparate passengers who could get a berth only because of this new system, we'll certainly thank railways for this, not if otherwise)Cons:1. Major compromise on convenience-Less space for seating, luggages and to move around.2. Money needs to spent in making changes to the coach
