    in a thousand years' time do you think artificial leg/arm medical technology will be advanced enough to allow a man to run faster than a train??


    a vision of the future?

    Not really. Trains are getting faster all the time - there was a programme on the topic recently - the U.S. Military have them going at insane speeds, 2,000km IIRC.
