Prior to 14 March 2008, I noticed on the radio that the railroads were advertising the fuel efficiency of railroads. I went to the Internet site http://csx.com/ where under ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP -> Air -> Learn more about our improved fuel efficiency, I saw a statement "Moving freight by rail is three times more fuel efficient than other over-the-road alternatives. Trains can move a ton of freight 423 miles on a single gallon of fuel. Efficient use of fuel means less greenhouse gas emissions for our nation.". I mentioned the fuel efficiency to some of my friends and some were a little skeptical of such numbers. Sometimes we need to be a little brave in proclaiming hard to believe but true things nonetheless. Bessler was quite brave in showing his wheels to a disbelieving world and (despite the evidence) the world rejected him and his wheels for the most part. Without Bessler's special very-low-friction Orffyrean roller bearings, Bessler's wheels would not have worked. AEP - 30 May 2008 Efficiency Analysis. Regarding the 423 (tons)(miles)/(gallon of fuel) achievable by freight trains, I think that part of the reason (besides lower wind friction of close railroad cars and low loss of power in the rolling of metal wheels on metal tracks) is the unadvertised power picked up from two part gravitons according to the Bessler principle. Many people are not aware of it. Trains can have massive axles and massive wheels, both rotating about horizontal axes. If the train wheels/axles rotate rapidly enough, the power picked up from gravitons could exceed the power lost through the bearings and other sources of friction, at which point the trains could be operating at overunity. That would not include the entire portion of the trip, including the fuel inefficient portions of getting the train initially moving, without much benefit from the Bessler principle. I mentioned the huge efficiencies of trains as one of my examples in my email to the President of the USA. You can see that email on my Internet site, http://www1.iwvisp.com/LA4Park/ , with internal link, ProminentEmail20080304.txt . That email briefly and my Internet site a little more completely explain why the Bessler principle works and what gravity is in my opinion (and so allows the Bessler principle to work). Trains should benefit even more, when someone redevelops the low friction mechanical roller bearing that I think Bessler developed in the early 1700s but that knowledge was lost. AEP - 30 May 2008 Improvement Goal. The railroads need to be congratulated on their achievement but they should keep in mind that they can do better, much, much better. It is an excellent start though. Developing the Orffyrean roller bearing would not only allow railroads to improve their fuel efficiency overall but also allow them to employ electromagnetic overunity engines besides the wheel so that eventually they should attain an overall fuel efficiency of zero gallons of fuel used to move a ton of freight any number of miles that they desire. That may sound impossible now but that should be their eventual goal. They might even be able to get close to the goal prior to the Orffyrean roller bearing being redeveloped, by beginning to use solar panels (that are becoming more energy efficient). AEP - 30 May 2008 Sound. When one hears and feels a freight train go by, one can feel/hear the powerful vibrations and sounds being given off. All that power does not come out of nowhere. It comes from gravitons as I think we will be able to better understand, when the Bessler principle is better understood/established. The power given off in transporting a ton of freight 423 miles definitely does not come purely from a gallon of fuel even though the simplest surface analysis would seem to indicate so (temporarily ignoring the Bessler principle). Some tornados have made a sound that some people describe is like a freight train. I don't think that this similarity is accidental. The railroad wheels/axles have nuclear ground states rotating rapidly about their own internal horizontal axes. The lowest portions of vertical tilted tornados have nuclear ground states rapidly rotating about their own internal vertical axes. See my internal file Tornados.txt AEP - 30 May 2008 Portion Over-unity. The massive railroad wheels and axles must have been operating at some times in over-unity fashion to account for other times of operating at under-unity, to net out at the high nearly over-unity figure of 423 miles/gallon of fuel (for transporting a ton of freight, as told on radio and on CSX.com) and still be able to give off much noise power and vibration that would be obvious to people near a rapidly moving freight train. With more efficient bearings and reducing wind friction more, trains would be operating even at greater over-unity conditions. Examples of rather obvious times of under-unity operation (when fuel is being consumed) are (1) going up hills, (2) starting out from a stop to get up to speed, (3) going slowly through a city or town, and (4) going slowly due to weather or rail conditions. Almost by default, we can see the times of over-unity operation as traveling quickly (at high speed where the rails are smooth, straight and not bumpy) when the traveling is fairly flat with respect to elevation. The over-unity situation should be especially obvious when we realize that some power is being used to make noise/vibration and fight wind friction. The railroads operating under such over-unity conditions would be yet another example of a modern day Bessler-like wheel. In these cases and in the Coral Castle cases (after startup, see RememberHistory.txt) such Bessler-like wheels would be operating in over-unity mode producing net useful power. The main difference between the railroad over-unity engine usage and the Ed L. over-unity engine usage was that the massive rotating things (wheels and train axles) on the railroads were center moving and the massive rotating things (old vehicle axles and massive cylindrical stone blocks) that Ed L. used were center stationary. AEP 19-20 June 2008 2009. I noticed that during 2009 that http://CSX.com/ -> ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP indicated that their trains can move a ton of freight 436 miles on a single gallon of fuel. They have also currently written "Steel wheels rolling on steel rails is the most efficient way yet devised to move goods from place to place." They have not yet given explicit credit to the Bessler principle (though I previously wrote to them about the situation).
