DYNAMICS IN THE DESERT

Full operation of the DOT "High Speed Ground Test Center" at Pueblo, Colorado is expected to begin in 1975. The Center will test and develop both conventional rail technology such as linear induction vehicles and tracked air cushion vehicles. There are extensive facilities to study urban rail transit, and track and train dynamics. The Pueblo Test Center will provide the opportunity for railroads and suppliers to benefit from government sponsored R&D.
