Maglev
EDM number 80 in 2006-07, proposed by David Clelland on 15/11/2006.
That this House congratulates the local authorities in the North East of England for their decision to promote Maglev as the preferred future inter-regional rapid transport mode; recognises that current thinking on high speed rail links is based on old technology that will be as outdated as steam trains by the end of the 21st century; and welcomes the recognition by North East councils that the region needs modern transport links that will close the North-South divide and stimulate the region's economy.
This motion has been signed by a total of 15 MPs.
