Hyperloop in Canada? 621 MPH ‘TransPod’ in feasibility studies
from NEXT with John Koetsier Hosted by John Koetsier
TransPod, a four-year-old company with roots in Canada and France has signed a memorandum of understanding with the government of Alberta to study the feasibility of linking the provinces two major cities, Edmonton and Calgary, by a hyperloop-like system. Top speed would be over 1,000 kilometers/hour, or about 620 miles/hour, and the Hyperloop would be an above-ground enclosed tube. Since Edmonton and Calgary are just under 200 miles apart, travel time would be about half an hour.
