Lack of investment?
Electricity costs and the infrastructure needed to build and maintain is not affordable to many countries around the world, in some cases even in the U.K. money is being held back in Wales to undercut the future of business and trade for unknown reasons?
Meanwhile the Diesel engine continues to rule the roost in the haulage of freight world-wide, because it is cheap and easy to work. Locomotive engines are improving all the time and the data on pollution varies from region to region worldwide, leaving one to wonder what is the real truth to the whole global warming situation!
Perhaps the taking off the road of trucks on to rail might cut the burning of fuel and relieve road traffic in towns and cities, but it is unknown if this is viable as it would logically seem to be?

Personal Aviation?
Advent of a New-Age!
The electric engine and drone technology is advancing daily with Brazil leading the way in the concept of this new idea! It is hoped that within the next ten years individuals will have their own machine to fly?
As with drones new laws are to be implemented in relation to height and speed in flight, but soon there may be the banning of some drone activity due to the increase in criminal activity and the difficulty in policing them?
Home built machines for one may be a fantasy, but time will tell if they will take-off and the laws catch up with them! There are many serious and beneficial applications for these one person aircraft that working with drones on oil pipe-lines, various types of other inspections will make them a viable resource and other military uses too?

Mono-Rails?
Viability?
Many nations around the world today have invested in the novelty of having their own version of the Mono-Rail system based on those 19thCentury wonders of Germany?
But until recently they have not been as viable apart from an easy way to transit airports and the fad of many a Sci-Fi film! It is the development in Mumbai India that is now leading the way in the first serious points development that will now at last put the mono-rail back as a serious alternative to rail and underground?
China wants a simpler system to move people over ground and various designs have come to the fore, apart from their own mono-rails and levitating railways? The future, here and in Japan look brighter and many other nations are now copping on to the viability of the system!
