The tunnels will be expensive, of course, so "maglev subways" are only an option for densely settled, wealthy worlds or continents. Fortunately, those are exactly the places which will be most annoyed with shuttle noise. I recall an artists' concept of an intercity train that does not stop at all, instead smaller regional trains run parallel for a time and match airlocks. _______________________________________________ GurpsNet-L mailing list <[email protected]> http://mail.sjgames.com/mailman/listinfo/gurpsnet-l
