Due to wireless power coming of age, Trainz is being the first to change all its electric trains into wireless powered trains. No more cluttered overhead power lines or having to raise pantographs. Each electric locomotive will be converted to utilise the wireless powered access points that will be placed at key positions along the rail line. These wireless powered access points will provide enough power to allow each wireless powered train to seamlessly operate as they did with wired power but without the overheads that wires provide.
The time to build wireless powered rail lines is significantly faster than the normal wired rail lines and the benefits are greater as it allows customers on board with wireless powered devices to be charged throughout their journey. Another added bonus to wireless powered trains means any runaway train will now have their wireless powered access points turned off for the line they are running on which will assist in stopping the train. This will also help prevent hijacking of trains since we have heard train robbers are on the rise in 2016!
