Note that TransPod is the maglev vactrain variant of hyperloop, distinct from the air bearing system in the original hyperloop white paper. This avoids new technology, and lets you use existing COTS maglev track, but... would be more expensive per mile than air bearings. Curious choice for a train in Alberta. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TransPod https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TransPod As other commentors have noted, this is a pre-pre-pre announcement. They're not even talking about breaking ground for another 5 years.
