Sparta will allow this as long as they may be equal partners in
the building and may send workers to create job oppurtunities.

Gondor gives its approval. In response to DEN, Gondor would be
interested in purchasing the Maglev designs for future ventures
once the freight railway is complete.

Sparta would also like to purchase the designs.

OOC: DEN currently actually uses that, and there is no wear and
tear on maglev trains.
IC: The DEN government assures the governments that high speed
freight and maglev trains are not to be worried with, and that
they can make the trains work. In addition, DEN asks that they
be allowed to supply people to build the railway as well.
DEN might be interested in selling the designs... if the price
is right.

OOC: If we're doing a modern roleplay, maglevs can only carry 19
tons per coach as of now. The average freight car carries about
100 tons. Maglevs aren't really that efficient for freight, but
they excel at carrying passengers. With that said, I'd be happy
to see maglevs on the passenger line, but not for freight.

OOC: I don't know why everyone thinks this, but this isn't
absolutely dead on hard MT where we can't even go a TOE ahead of
the real life. DEN has actually been able to increase the weight
limit per coach. This gives us the ability to speed food and
water to needed places, just not hard freight. That's the idea I
had. Two lines: Maglev and High Speed Rail, where maglev speeds
needed items, and high speed rail sends less than needed items.

OOC: It's also a cost concern. Vladivostov is a brand-new nation
and is bending over backwards to get this railway finished.
Plus, I'm personally not very keen on HSR or maglevs. I think
the currently (IRL) existing rail infrastructure is amazing, so
I'm going after that example here.

OOC: ... You really don't want to improve the railway because of
traditions? That's... odd... But we are really large and would
be more than happy to help supply.

Sparta asks DEN how much they wish for their designs.

Construction on railroads linking Gondor, Vladivostov, and
Sparta have been completed.
OOC: Once I get permission from a few more nations, I'll make a
new topic in the 'Trade' section, where we can talk about
transportation and set prices.
