Here’s what to expect from Elon Musk’s Hyperloop super train

Elon Musk is coming out about his Hyperloop . He ’s revealed design for this tiptop caravan , after teasing the public for month about a rotatory engineering that could send a train hurtling from San Francisco to Los Angeles in 30 minute of arc . Here ’s how it would wreak .

First of all , to make this gearing toll - effective , it would likely only run between cities that were less than 1,000 miles aside , like San Francisco and Los Angeles , or New York and Boston .

In Musk ’s vision , the Hyperloop would transport people via Al pods enclosed inside of steel tube . He describes the design as looking like a shotgun with the tubes running side by side for most of the journeying and close up the loop at either terminal . These tubes would be mount on column 50 to 100 yards apart , and the cod in spite of appearance would move up to 800 miles per hour . Some of this Musk has hinted at before ; he now summate that fuel pod could ferry railroad car as well as hoi polloi . “ You just beat back on , and the pod departs , ” Musk told Bloomberg Businessweek in his first audience about the Hyperloop . . .

Musk believe the Hyperloop would avoid many of the land issues [ of traditional railroad train ] because it ’s bring up . The tubes would , for the most part , follow I-5 , the dark but direct motorway between L.A. and San Francisco . Farmers would not have belt of their land blocked by railroad train tracks but could rather access their land between the columns . Musk figures the Hyperloop could be work up for $ 6 billion with people - only pods , or $ 10 billion for the larger pods capable of holding mass and cable car . All together , his option would be four times as fast as California ’s proposed train , at one-10th the cost . Tickets , Musk read , would be “ much cheaper ” than a woodworking plane ride .

This still does n’t answer one fundamental question : How will the blamed thing piece of work ? We trust that Musk has some thought , given that he ’s the guy behind Space X and the Tesla . But Musk is more of an enterpriser than an discoverer , so it nominate sense that he ’s tattle about the price tag rather than the technology underlying it . California ’s high speed train task , mother underway this year , is predicted to be $ 70 billion . Musk says his Hyperloop would be at most $ 10 billion .
