Here is something a bit different that I just couldn’t resist. Yes, it is an air powered train, in turn powered by electricity, and it is in service in Jakata, Indonesia and Porto Allegre, Brazil.
Describing how this works in words is a bit difficult so I suggest that if you are interested you go to the Technology page of the Aeromovel web site and have a look. It is quite ingenious and you can easily imagine the soft acceleration and deceleration as the train literally gets blown along its hollow track.
