The Hyper Tube, really really fast and not as smelly as the Northern Line

We love new things and new possibilities

did you read about Elon Musk's (SpaceX, Tesla and Paypal) 'I had a dream' moment'?

- A supersonic "Hyperloop" transport concept to link Los Angeles and San Francisco.

How cool is that? - a few electromagnets (massive over simplification, I know!) and hey presto, a capsule floating on a cushion of air travelling faster than 700mph through a tube all at a bargain price of $6bn ( about £3.9bn). that's the price of the project, not a ticket :)

powered by solar green energy with some sort of back up - cant see us only travelling when the sun is up.

it sounds like a brilliant niche product. anyone fancy doing Bedford - London in 5 minutes or Edinburgh to London in 34 minutes?

the future is bright, the future is 700 mph capsules, but maybe not just yet.

Greet this new day with open arms and endless possibility

Have a great day :)
