will gas stations be replaced by electric train?
incompatibility: diesel trains can run on any track without electricity or with any kind of electricity (third rail or overhead line, dc or ac, and at any voltage or frequency). not so electric trains, which can never run on non-electrified lines, and which even on electrified lines can run only on the single, or the few, electrical system(s) for which they are equipped.
Arthur C Clarke once observed that people get too optimistic about technological progress for the short run, and then too pessimistic for the long term. I think that is what has happened with this particular technology. When I was a kid, I watched the Jetsons a lot. In those days, the "future" was around 2000. That was when we were supposed to be living the Jetsons. Everyone would have their own rocket packs, with which we could zip around in, flying cars, robot maids, homes and offices in the sky that looked like the Space Needle.   

  

Ironically though, the Jetsons was not set in 2000, but in 2061. I think that's a good ballpark for when we'll have practical flying cars.   

  

If you think about it, we've had flying cars of a sort for some time now. It doesn't require any sort of special technology at the basic level. They're called helicopters. It is quite possible to build small inexpensive helicopters right now. It's not a question of technology really--it's more about regulation, licensing, safety, and infrastructure.   

  

I think driver-less technology, once it is perfected and demonstrated to be reliable in ordinary ground cars, will help clear the way for the first three objections. I imagine vehicles, approximately car sized, maybe a bit wider or taller, emerging from people's garages where the roof opens, not a door on the side. They might look hemispheric, two contra-rotating fan blades, negating the need for a tail, driven perhaps by an electric induction motor of sufficient power, similar to a Tesla. The blades and motor might be at the bottom, surrounded by a wire mesh, with a floor filled with Lithium batteries, maybe graphene batteries if someone finds a means to mass-produce that amazing material, and then the passengers on top of that, enclosed in a transparent dome, sitting on a ring of seats after they tell the car their destination.   

  

At first, they will be toys of the rich. People will be stuck in the horrible traffic on the highways, and look above longingly as the wealthy zip above them to their offices downtown. It will become a status symbol, and more and more people will buy them, and the cost will come down as manufacturers find ways to bring the costs down and mass produce more. New buildings and garages will gradually be designed to accommodate the new cars. It might be necessary for the new cars to be able to hover just a few feet off the ground so that they can enter existing garages, but eventually, as new buildings are designed and built, the garages might migrate to the tops of buildings, or perhaps a garage to the side where cars land on top, and are moved by elevator down to a parking spot. it looks like you may already be enjoying your magical vacation at the happiest place on earth, and i hope it’s everything you’ve always dreamed of! the disneyland monorail is one of my favorite modes of transportation inside the disneyland resort. not only is it easy to use, but my kids love it, too! the disneyland monorail makes two stops, including one at downtown disney district, and one at tomorrowland. so, you’re correct that the monorail no longer stops at any of the disneyland resort hotels. however, the downtown disney district station is very close to all three disneyland resort hotels, especially the disneyland hotel! in fact, all three disneyland resort hotels are within walking distance of the downtown disney district station. you’ll find the tomorrowland station located directly above finding nemo submarine voyage. time to have a mechanic do some hands-on testing! A hybrid vehicle uses two or more distinct types of power. 


A petroleum-electric hybrid most commonly uses internal combustion engines (using a variety of fuels, generally gasoline or Diesel engines) and electric motors to power the vehicle. The energy is stored in the fuel of the internal combustion engine and an electric battery set. “think of a wonderful thought. any merry little thought.” i bet i know what you’re thinking of, meredith! you’re thinking about coming home to walt disney world resort. the last two years have been quite difficult, and i completely understand your desire to visit your happy place. for many of us, the most magical place on earth provides comfort, where guests can experience the magic and not dwell on the stresses of everyday life. a place where we can let our inner child out through imagination and great storytelling.  meredith, you’re on the right track by having made your disney park pass reservations! guests need both a theme park ticket and a disney park pass reservation to enter a theme park.  the reason you aren’t able to make any fast passes is that the fastpass+ service has been discontinued. instead, starting october 19th, the disney genie service is being introduced through guests' my disney experience mobile app. this complimentary service will help guests plan their best disney day by choosing their preferred experiences and then creating an ideal, personalized itinerary for them.  additionally, guests will be introduced to the disney genie+ and lightning lane entrance, which will be available for purchase in two different ways.  by purchasing disney genie+ lightning lane selections, guests will be able to use the entrance to more than 40 attractions available one at a time throughout the day. you can also purchase individual lightning lane selections; these are the highly sought-after attractions such as avatar flight of passage and seven dwarfs mine train and can be purchased up to 2 attractions a day beginning october 19th. hi mark! welcome back to the disney parks moms panel with an excellent planning question. illuminations: reflections of earth is one of my favorite fireworks shows at the walt disney world resort. the 350,000-pound earth globe and inferno barges are one-of-a-kind pyrotechnic technology to bring you a state of the art nighttime spectacular. there is truly not a bad spot along world showcase to view this evening entertainment. the fastpass+ viewing area is the best spot in the park. fastpass+ viewing for illuminations: reflections of earth is located in the world showcase plaza. cast members will direct you to the check-in queue located between disney traders and port of entry located in the center of world showcase plaza. this area is standing room only but will accommodate guests in ecvs and wheelchairs. we hope you enjoy our story, reflections of earth. see ya real soon, andrea hi, susan! our beloved wishes will retire on may 11, 2017, to make way for the new happily ever after fireworks show. this new nighttime spectacular at the magic kingdom will feature fireworks, new technology, projection, music and more. happily ever after will debut on may 12, 2017. evenings in the disney theme parks are so exciting with illuminations: reflections of earth at epcot, fantasmic! at disney's hollywood studios, and rivers of light at disney's animal kingdom. i will certainly be needing mid-day naps so i can stay up late enough to enjoy all of this nighttime fun! wishing you happy days and magical nights during your walt disney world vacation! cathy Yep, we'll fix this soon. hey. this new generation can just get in line and wait your turn. my generation is still waiting for these exact same changes promised 30 years ago!
