There is interesting picture of hyperloop in article: http://breakthrough.turing.com/images/elements/A26.jpg http://breakthrough.turing.com/images/elements/A26.jpg I wonder, why not just build regular bullet train? 380 miles seems like ideal distance. 1:30 minutes (center to center) would be great improvement. And it could be done in a few months.
