>>1235955Unironically the blimp train is an interesting idea if the blimp just draws power from the train. Or was this the idea to begin with?
The blimp could fly endlessly as long as it's connected to the train. You could have cheaply made rail lines with small carts running along them that draw power and transfer it to the blimp via a detachable cable. The cable has a drone attached, which guides it to the blimp and back to the cart when the blimp is done drawing power.
