Siemens involvement

Press release[1] from Siemens stating that they supplied the electrical system for this and some of the other DCC systems. —Sladen (talk) 22:10, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Replacement

The fourth paragraph of this section has a sentence beginning "The trains operate at a minimum headway is 120 seconds, ...". This is clearly wrong and I would have corrected it but I don't know what it should say. Possibly it should be "of" 120 seconds rather than "is", but that still makes no sense to me. Can anyone correct this? Fredsie (talk) 15:37, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Maglev cars.

Pretty sure there were (are?) three not two, but cannot find any source. I have clear memories of riding the line when it was operating with a single-car train on one track, and a two-car train on the other. And there seem to be three cars around until recently (one at the NRM, one at Peterborough, and the one that got auctioned on ebay). Can anybody shed (and source) any light?. -- Starbois (talk) 14:23, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

One in peterborough at rail world? http://www.railworld.net/birminghammaglev.php 81.155.210.202 (talk) 11:35, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

gliding hight

The article says: «altitude of 15 millimetres (0.59 in)» I can see at least two gross mistakes here. Tuvalkin (talk) 11:35, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

Monorail

The first paragraph of the first external link (the airport's official website) describes this as a monorail. The Wikipedia article doesn't categorize this as a monorail, but there is no information about how many wheels/rails it does have. Is it a monorail in any sense? If so that should be made clear. And does the request button really say "demand"?--Shantavira|^{feed me} 16:09, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
