A zero emissions train. Use a diesel engine as a generator. This will power the electric motors. The emissions will be captured by a special exhaust system. The captured carbon is stored in a container and will be added to crude oil later on. The train is made much lighter by using a twin chassis made out of a super alloy. It is a very sleek aerodynamic design. Make a cube from 8 buckyballs and 12 carbon nanotubes. Connect several of these together to make a sheet. This is our nano technology super alloy!
