Fully Automatic Rapid Transit System. (No wear or Damage)

Description
The future of railway travel is here. Get From A to B at walking pace without having to walk or drive! Welcome to the new space engineers FULLY AUTOMATIC, not so rapid, rapid transit system (It should be noted I've never tested it to its full speed, so who knows how fast it could go). Due to it utilizing the fantastic invention of rails it does not need to be steered. It uses an innovative new propulsion system using a gravity generator slanted at approximately 20 degrees of vertical, so it essentially continuously falls along the track without assistance; because who needs to turn the wheels? The track is very flexible and easy to construct, make it longer, make it shorter, give more bends, try inverse bends, however I have no idea whether sideways bends work. It also never needs replacing/repairing, and never wears; why? Because I'm a genious + tyres. So far it has done 20 laps without a problem!

Things you could try!

Make a bigger better track.
Have two tracks and two trains.
Heck why not have loads of trains and tracks.
Make points/crossings.
Set a speed record!
Make a Fully automatic ore carrying system/cargo train.
make different orientation curves

I am setting this to open development, please reference the inventor.

SAFETY ANNOUNCEMENT

MIND THE GAP BETWEEN THE TRAIN AND THE PLATFORM!!

Only vertical bend? What is the top speed you have tested at?

I was thinking of something like this when I spotted it XD.

this is a really good consept! i can almost imagen it as a mod

I assume that the gravgen is pushing it at an angle to the rails and friction of the wheels and rails keeps the speed constant.

I was curious, when I tried to imitate your design with another rail system I found that the use of a gravity generator causes it to accelerate faster and faster until it literally flies of the rails, how did you get it to maintain a constant speed?

make a roller coaster next!
