Would kill all the passengers if it did, still a pretty cool idea in that place where every second counts... Lol Japan has the craziest ideas!

Our world is too quick already. We're all too 'extraordinary'
We dont spend time to take care of ourselves, we dont spend time taking care of our relationships.
All we do is run run run, faster faster, fast breakfast, fast bus, fast pace to the workplace, fast food (lunch), fast drive home, fast shower (you want to leave more time to sit in the sopha)...
Human race = dinosaur race = what happened to dinosours, when they became extraordinary ?

as you can see theres at least a 100ft to gain speed but thats still pretty bad...you'll save 10seconds ever stop...at least in hong kong...

And what if there's more people want to disembark at a station than can be accommodated by the "shuttle"? Doh!

Well, the main point of this I think will be to save all the energy it takes to accelerate a train like that. It's much more easy to just let it keep the same speed all the way, instead of stopping and accelerating on each and every stop. And, if theres a lot of stops, this would actually save a lot of time too, and not only "10 sec", as it saves the time it takes to stop and accelerate too.
or?

#12 did you by chance mean 'embark' at a station,meaning to get on or board the train? 'Disembark' means to get off or leave a train or boat,etc. If the people are already ON the shuttle then the shuttle must have been able to accommodate them so disembarking should not be a problem.

So hopefully Taiwan doesn't have the same problem as in Japan?

So I'm assuming the people in the last train are getting off at that station... What if the people at the last train don't want to get off at that stop, do they move to the front? Good idea, but needs work.

Time is more valuable then almost everything else. But, Still quite lazy to simply not to stop the train.

It seems as though if you get on the main train then you are going to be there until the end of the line. Only shuttle passengers have a choice.

Can you imagine the whiplash if the car being picked-up grabs-on too quickly?
