Musk has in fact been openly hostile to CHSR, and devoted the first substantive paragraphs of the Hyperloop whitepaper to a swipe at “California ‘high speed’ rail” (complete with skeptical scare quotes), which he described as “one of the most expensive per mile and one of the slowest...
The HyperloopTT system has a low implementation cost compared to other high-speed transportation methods. As a civil infrastructure project covering long distances, there will be segments that are above ground, at grade, and below ground,optimized to meet unique local conditions. ...
The Boring Company, led by Tesla’s Elon Musk, haspreviously statedthat it would like to utilize Hyperloop technology. “Fast to dig, low cost tunnels would also make Hyperloop adoption viable and enable rapid transit across densely populated regions, enabling travel from New York to Washington ...
The cost to complete the entire 500-kilometerSweden-Finlandnetwork is projected to be19 billion Euros, or38 million Eurosper kilometer on average. This reinforces Hyperloop One's contention all along that Hyperloop technology can deliver higher-speed transpo...
It’s an exciting technology with a futuristic bent, but to hit the big time, it needs to beat out all comers on price and practicality. Let’s take a look at how it breaks down. Continue reading“Hyperloop: Fast, But At What Cost?”→ ...
For balance, here's an article that is critical of the Hyperloop proposal, not for technical reasons per se, but because of an unfair comparison to the CA...
How much slop is required for multi-hundred mile segments? The slop would be (1inch/100ft)*5280ft/mi*100mi= 5280in= 440ft per 100mi. R RDoc 2021 Prerefresh Model S Aug 24, 2012 2,861 1,837 Boston North Shore Aug 13, 2013 #313 One comment on ride smoothness vs minor ...
while the engineers focus on the pod designs, these other contributors are looking at issues like tube placement, future station design, and ticket prices. delft estimates the future cost as comparable to that of an airplane ticket, with construction costing $40 million per kilometer, wh...

as I know many others were too. How could it be that the home of Silicon Valley and JPL—doing incredible things like indexing all the world’s knowledge and putting rovers on Mars—would build a bullet train that is both one of the most expensive per mile and one of the slowest in ...
