Abstract

Since Maglev vehicles will run in a closed vacuum tube, the layout of the terminal stations of evacuated tube transportation (ETT) will differ from the traditional railway stations. This paper deals with some possible station layouts of ETT, e.g., a station with an airlock, a station without an airlock, above ground and underground stations, and stations with either level arrayed or rotation platforms. Then different station layouts are compared, and characteristics of each are analyzed. Finally, a more secure mode for ETT station layouts is suggested, which can be the basis for future ETT station layout and designs.
