Extreme Engineering (Discovery) - Sky City?

2160 - *sigh* - anyone else catch that.. dunno why but it was oddly compelling just to see what they're trying to do nowadays, some very cool stuff.

Anyone else seen any of these episodes? just curious what the other few were about..

I saw the one about the transatlantic railroad tunnel.

It was very interesting that the possibility exists of a 5,000mph train traveling through the atlantic from NY to London in an hour. I doubt if this would happen but we can dream can't we.

I saw parts of it while flipping through channels. Very cool. I'll have to catch the whole thing if it ever airs again.

Ive seen bits of two (2) episode, the first being a bridge stretching the Atlantic and more recently the sky city presentation. This show is actually quite "neat".

I noticed that the city has a monorail. Is there a chance the track could bend?
