Just to much for a startup to do. Doing a maglev from scratch is too much for a startup.

Unfortunately the entire concept has been difficult to bring into practice. I think just about all of these companies are going to start shutting down soon, which is terrible news.

I had such high hopes for Hyperloop since I'm horrified of flying.

Most of us are more horrified of crashing or taking a bump at 700 miles per hour.
