The PRT Palomino vehicle is a linear induction motor (LIM) propelled steel-wheel on steel-rail, 6-passenger transport vehicle. It has been in operation on the Pullman Standard 610 meter (2000 ft) oval test track at Hammond, Indiana since January 1978. The LIM-propelled Palomino vehicle represents a class of steel-wheeled, steel-railed vehicles that promises to become the most practical for the next generation of AGT systems. This type of vehicle has outstanding advantages in lowest friction, simplest lateral guidance and smoothest ride. With LIM propulsion, the Palomino has the additional advantages of lowest friction and wear, highest resistance to environment, lowest maintenance costs, and most reliable tractive forces. This report is intended to document the test data necessary to evaluate the performance of this class of vehicles in the AGT role. (DePo)
