Phileas (public transport) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Phileas (public transport)
thumb Phileas is a bus rapid transit, developed by Samenwerkingsverband Regio Eindhoven (SRE), Netherlands, along with some other companies for the Cooperation Foundation Eindhoven Region (most prominently; APTS and Bombardier). It is an advanced guided bus intended to deliver tram-like public transport at a very low cost: the infrastructure is much cheaper, because of less maintenance, and there are no rails and overhead lines. The biggest feature of the bus is the recharging of the battery by means of electromagnetic induction; which means that the battery can be made much smaller, and thus less heavy and environmentally damaging.〔(Electromagnetic recharging )〕〔(Phileasbus using electromagnetic induction )〕 The project was created in the late 1990s; there was a wish to demonstrate the high technology level and technical knowledge in the Eindhoven area and to create jobs. The project has cost more than one billion euros, including infrastructure changes. == Origin of name == Phileas is called after Phileas Fogg, the protagonist in ''Around the World in Eighty Days'' by Jules Verne because of the high speed and ability to be on time.
