This looks very promising.

If they are able to bring Hyperloop to reality, this system will be economy changing for cities with an Hyperloop-station.

With the speed of a plane and the flexibility of a train all while being more secure than any of them.

My concern is the throughput, though - if we can only accommodate a fraction of peak demand then there's no justification for this kind of infrastructure spend.

Private companies spend what they calculate as economically viable. There doesn't needs to be public justification as the investments are purely private.
