I just found your article on Non-stop commuter trains. There is a much simpler (and older) concept and I could forward you the article, but do not have your email. Let me know if you are interested in it.

I think this is bigger than energy efficiency. Take the Acela train for instance.

Right now, they are planning to extend it’s NE corrider route from DC through Richmond. In doing so, they’ll have to remove some stops that people depend on for regional transportation. However, if a system could be built so that a high-speed, inter-city train could consistently run with a commuter system built on top of it, we could eventually have a more integrated rail system in the united states.

Efficiency in energy and transport methods.

it crossed my mind: what if someone don´t want to stop at that specific station, and maybe desire to go until the end of the line? have to wait another train?

Please not that the person the video is not Peng Yu-lun. He’s someone called Chen Jian-Jun (as you can tell on the upper right hand corner). I don’t know who invented the concept, but this video has been carelessly circulated with erroneous information. You should make corrections accordingly.
