FluxJet trains will travel in vacuum tubes at a speed of 1,000 km/h.

August 4, 2022

The FluxJet is a train/jet hybrid capable of carrying up to 54 passengers at over 1,000 km/h (621 mph), three times faster than high-speed trains. Toronto-based TransPod is designing this transportation system in collaboration with other institutions and international partners. TransPod plans to build a revolutionary network system called the TransPod Line between the cities of Calgary and Edmonton in Alberta, Canada. The authors of the project say that it is different from other vacuum tube train projects because it is based on a "smart infrastructure" that significantly reduces operating and maintenance costs.
