The Pylons used for the transmission network of the Electricity transport from the generation point to the distribution point can be optimized in that it can also be used for transportation; that is the electric train system. The Chinese Electric train systems have used this technology in which Pylons used for transmission of Electricity are used at the same time as a power supply to their electric train system. The normal installation of these Pylons is a straight line or row along the boundaries of our road highway system. My suggestion to this high tech system is instead of the one long row system of the installation of the Pylons it has to be two rows or networks and a coupler placed between the two cables side by side of each of the Pylons will serve as a Power supply to the electric train running between the two rows of Pylons. In this case, the Pylons being a carrier of electricity will also act as a Power supply of electricity to our electric train system. This means as it solves our Power issues; it also solves our transportation issues.
