A transport system for providing increased capacity to move individuals and freight while still accommodating the individual needs of passengers and freight movers to travel to unique destinations. The transit system including a car including a set of switching wheels that are designed to engage with a set of switching rails, the switching wheels being moveable to selectively engage with the switching rails to either maintain the car on the track or switch the car off of the track. The car having to capability to travel on the relatively high-speed track and on a conventional surface street.

The invention discloses a collaborative turning track self-planning system and method for a multi-body auxiliary transportation system, which belong to the technical field of mining equipment. The system comprises a mining flat car which comprises a front car, a rear car and a connecting rod, and the front car is connected with the rear car through the connecting rod. The system also comprises an image acquisition module and a control module, wherein the image acquisition module is arranged at the top of the front end of the front car and is used for acquiring and transmitting the information of the environment in front of the mining flat car; and the control module is arranged on the mining flat car, receives the information transmitted by the image acquisition module, processes the information to generate a target trajectory, and controls the direction of the mining flat car according to the target trajectory. According to the method, the image acquisition module is matched with the control module to acquire and analyze the front curve information when the mining flat car advances, so that the target trajectory is planned to control the mining flat car to run according to the trajectory, and the cost and danger coefficient of manual turning in a traditional mode are reduced; and in combination with the method disclosed in the invention, the turning stability and adaptability of the mining flat car are improved.

A multi-rail express transit system for allowing the passengers to travel at desired speed/distance, is disclosed. The system comprises a centralized control system, at least three closed loop parallel rails, and at least three sequence of transit cars. Each sequence of transit car is supported by the respective rail. The transit cars are configured to move in same direction at different speeds. The control system is configured to synchronize the speed of transit cars at desired point to allow transference of passengers. A bellow assembly is disposed around an exterior side of a door of each transit car. The bellow assembly is configured to form an airtight passageway between at least two transit cars. Each transit car comprises a movable floor. The movable floor of one transit car is extendable to a floor of an adjacent transit car to facilitate passenger transference on forming the airtight seal.
