I'll get downvoted by the Musk fans, but the NY-DC Hyperloop corridor failed because Hyperloop doesn't work, is non existent, and that corridor is already served by the only profitable train line in the US, the Amtrak DC -> Boston train. It made no financial sense to do this. Bureaucracy is just an excuse for yet another Musk pipe dream to pump stock.
Wasn't a train line in California cancelled because Musk's Hyperloop was going to do it? What ever happened to that?
My impression so far is that hyperloop is simply a scam.
For whoever cares to learn more, watch Adamsomething on youtube and his many takedowns on how stupid the entire project is.
