AI Technical Summary
Existing railway infrastructure lacks the capability to support additional structures, such as elevated platforms for magnetic lifts, due to structural limitations and material constraints.
A concrete traverse with carbon reinforcement is proposed, which can be prefabricated and integrated under existing railway tracks to provide a stable foundation for additional structures like magnetic lifts.
Enables the construction of elevated platforms on existing railway lines, enhancing stability and enabling the operation of magnetic lifts, while utilizing existing infrastructure.

Abstract
Description
[0001] In Germany and other countries around the world, there are railways that run on rails. These routes already exist; the tracks are laid; some have electricity for electric trains, or the trains run on diesel or gas locomotives. My idea is a concrete truss with carbon reinforcement that would allow a second level to be built above the existing railway lines, on which, for example, magnetic levitation trains (Trans-Rapid, etc.) could operate. These trusses can be concreted in a triangular shape (for increased stability) beneath the existing rails and then completed. Explanations 1. Prefabricated element 2. Existing rails 3. Element to be completed on site with concrete and carbon
Claims
[] I hereby apply for protection of a concrete traverse in triangular form or similar, reinforced with carbom, possibly partly prefabricated, in order to enable an additional track (magnetic levitation or similar) to be installed over railway lines on a second floor.
