Sounds like gadgetbahn.
If we want to solve for capacity we have this.
There are no sleeping wagons during the day because people rarely sleep during the day.
Also having narrow ladder to get to half the wagon for sure will be great for elderly and disabled people.
It's not a mono-rail, it's an attempt at a better night-train car design. Will it have any success in a market where we already have nightjet, etc.? No idea. But this doesn't seem all that pie in the sky.
Yeah fair point, it should be compatible with current infrastructure, so if we assume what they claim is true and they really can increase capacity/ reduce pollution is it ok.
