Light Rail Lev Train

The Light Rail Lev Train is a type of vehicle introduced in Cyberpunk 2020.

Sourcebook Description
Superconductor magnets have made it possible to build extremely cheap and durable "Levitation trains". Riding on magnetic cushions, these "levs" have become one of the major transportation resources in the 2000's. financed by corporations or city governments, they are present in most major cities.

Levs are usually underground within city limits, running on high pillars out in the suburbs. Usually one line, headed out to the corporate suburbs, is sealed off and requires entry code or pass to get into that station. Corporate lev stations are always clean, well lit, and well guarded by corporate security. City lev-stations are usually not up to these standards, although most cities run police patrols on the line to control crime and vandalism.

Lev-tickets are charged at a rate of 50c per station passed; a trip passing through three stations, for example would cost 1.50eb. Tickets may be purchased from automatic ticket machines, using credit cards or cash. These machines are located in the stations themselves and in local convenience store outlets.
