Russian inventor Dahir Semenov has designed an electric train-plane hybrid.
The ultralight structure would be tethered to an electrified rail, feeding it power and eliminating the need for fuel.
It would travel at 500 km an hour and seat up to 2000 passengers.
Although the design is futuristic, it incorporates existing technologies. The project is only in the design stage with no plans for production, but presents an interesting concept.
