I don't think they need every unit to be a car, don't you think so ? so, what do you think about the prize ? should there be a difference in price between cars (with motion power) and trailer (without motion power) ?

But I think, those third cars in KLIA Aerotrain are also powered. Though they may not necessarily have all the control devices in the other two cars, so its cost may be lower. The price? RM11m (about USD3m), would buy you at least <a href="http://news.com.com/Aerial+taxis+preparing+for+takeoff/2100-1041_3-5681600.html" rel="nofollow">two Eclipse 500 small jet planes</a>, able to carry 6 people each at 375knots for 300 to 600 miles. regards, sabre23t =^.^= Cars with traction power would certainly cost more than trailer cars, Shin.
