Have a look HERE for much more information on them.

Yes, I know it's Wikipedia, but it's pretty much correct from what I have seen in the past.

While a magnetic rail gun has been researched Tradelane technology revolves around compressing space so that the ship can travel over more of it at one time (According to what I read in the Discovery wiki about them). So by propelling the object at a constant speed through more space in a shorter period of time you achieve acceleration the problem would be developing it so that when space is returned to normal around the object (it exits the lane or rail gun) keeping it from decelerating. The reason ships can withstand Lanes at the moment is because they aren't actually traveling any faster then what there speedometer reads (within the lane) however space withing the lane is compacted there fore you travel a further distance than someone in normal space in the same time period at the same speed. So to those outside the lane you travel about 2000m/s.
