Test engine, designed for the future of the vacuum train Hyperloop, held on Wednesday in the desert north of the American city of Las Vegas (Nevada). As the WSJ newspaper said CEO Hyperloop One Rob Lloyd, testing has shown that the concept of such a method of movement can be realized in practice
“Hyperloop real She (her concept -… Note corr).. Comes to life right now, “- he said. Lloyd plans to build a functioning system of movement of this type in 2020.
The company, formed in 2014 in Los Angeles (California), set a goal to dramatically reduce the cost of the work. “We will reduce Hyperloop cost of up to two-thirds of the cost of construction of the railway, but it will provide the speed of movement in three times (express speed -. Note corr..)”, – Said Lloyd
vactrain project Hyperloop. It was proposed in 2012 by the American investor Elon Musk – his company SpaceX has developed a reusable spacecraft to deliver cargo and people to the International space station. The idea mask is that the pipes above the ground, which is supported by a technical vacuum, at intervals of not more than 30 seconds with a speed of up to 1220 km / h will travel a capsule with passengers or cargo.
According to the statements developers, the cost of implementing such a project will be much lower than in the construction of the railway from the magnetic levitation train. Musk said the real order of $ 6 billion to build Hyperloop ten years between the Californian city of Los Angeles and San Francisco.
