That's the first thing I noticed. This seems like a competition for fast electric train.
- lucideer 9y agoFrom my understanding, it seems the main concept behind Hyperloop is a "fast electric train" in an evacuated tube. Other design details from the original spec. don't seem as central to the definition.
