The construction of the super speed train 1.200km / h under water

Hyperloop One in the US plans to build an underwater cargo freighter to return space to the coast.

According to Peter Diamandis, a board member of Hyperloop One in Los Angeles, USA, the Hyperloop with a speed of up to 1,200km / h can transport cargo to ports 16km from shore. "We have discussed with many port authorities around the world about port restructuring in this model," Diamandis said.

Hyperloop is a smart ship project that American billionaire Elon Musk introduced in August 2013. According to Business Insider, Hyperloop One is proposing to move the ports 16km offshore and to build a berth for a ship like a giant rig for unloading cargo. The Hyperloop will move between the coast and the offshore port for cargo containers.

In this system, the vessel will run in a vacuum pipe, which can remove air resistance and speed. The average speed of the train is 965km / h and the maximum speed is over 1,220km / h.

"Long Beach near my place is a beautiful coast of California, but it is covered by seaports, cargo containers and cargo ships." Imagine you could get that space to build a park, homes and beaches by taking ports offshore, " Diamandis said.

Hyperloop's runway design is a closed pipeline located beneath the water, which avoids navigational problems.

"I think in the future, there is a lot of underwater space that has not yet been taken advantage of, and the Hyperloop can take the lead in tunneling," Diamandis said.

Diamandis said the company is considering the possibility of using the Hyperloop underwater to carry people. "One of the interesting suggestions is that the railroad crosses the sea between Norway and Sweden," Diamandis said.
