You can thank brainy billionaire Elon Musk’s for bringing electro-magnetic-powered transportation and the linear induction motor back into the public consciousness.
The Hyperloop is a system for really-really rapid transit. If built, Musk claims it can carry people about 800 miles per hour, which could get you from Los Angeles to San Francisco in about 30 minutes.
If this comes to pass I think it would be more useful for shipping fresh foods and other goods. An accident at that speed would result in a terrible calamity.
On that train all graphite and glitter
Undersea by rail
Ninety minutes from New York to Paris
(More leisure time for artists everywhere)
Just machines to make big decisions
Programmed by fellas with compassion and vision
We’ll be clean when the work is done
We’ll be eternally free, yes– and eternally young
Ooooooo
What a beautiful world it will be!
What a glorious time to be free!
