I love trains, when the Hyperloop first started getting talked about I was so excited, and so far nothing. The technology for cheap fast travel already exists, we could have already been well on our way to efficient and very fast coast to coast travel in America.

Maybe you're being unfair @RickiTarr !

According to Wikipedia, there's a project to create a 410 m hyperloop in India by 2025.

410 m mean 1/4 mile !

@hgfernan @RickiTarr It…it would probably literally be faster to walk or jog that, when you factor in the time it would take to load, accelerate, decelerate, and unload.
