The Future of High Speed Rail

Silver Bullet Rail Deisgn Group

Midwest High Speed Rail

300 Miles of upgraded track

Supports high speed trains going 220-mph

Michigan secured over $40 million in stimulus money

Jobs And High Speed Rail

Creates construction and permanent jobs.

The high-speed train system in California will generate 600,000 construction-related jobs over the life of the project.

Safety of High Speed Rail

Offers SAFE, and GREEN transportation.

In 2009 36,000 Americans died in car accidents.

Train fatalities in 2009---700

2030 Challenge

The overall result is equivalent 1 gallon of gas for 720 miles per person – reduced energy consumption and reduced CO2 emissions that also benefit our environment.

Design Goal Our groups design goal is to build a station hub that

will accommodate the future Midwest high speed rail.

We have taken ideas for our design from various existing hubs around the world.

Customer: City of Kalamazoo, MI
