Abstract

Skybus is the latsest technology, economical, eco-friendly, reliable and most innovative but simple mode of transportation developed by Konkan Railway as a rail based futurristic urban mass transit system. Principle of sky bus metro rail tracks over-head carry wheels and driving boogie, with coach below. Sky bus failed in metro city but it will be a great success in Mountainous Region in lifting passenger and cargo to remote regions of Himalaya and improving economic and bring transportation cost down. Sky bus can fly over long clear span covering buildings, mountain even water bodies. Also can be used during disaster in evacuating people. Better performance than underground metro at one-fourth cost and ready in two years. Sky bus is the only metro system which carries cargo too.
