“@DJSnM They will, but the hydraulic system is closed loop, so no fluid lost. They do need more power & energy, but rocket has plenty of that.”
“@OfficeOfOMAR @HyperloopOne I hope they and any others trying to advance transport technology succeed”
“@realkrauswife I know that area well. Best would be to add ramps into the tunnel system from the basement levels of the parking lots surrounding 3rd St.”
“@prakash_d @grillick @IndianInterest “Pneumatic” means propelled by air. Opposite of Hyperloop.”

“Tunnels are so underrated [@aakashgupta] The real story is the $25 million per mile price tag they’re betting on. Nashville’s own 2018 light rail plan priced at $200 million per mile.

It can start”
“Major breakthrough by @BoringCompany! [@boringcompany] Big tunneling milestone! For the first time, TBC has continuously mined in a Zero-People-in-Tunnel (ZPIT) configuration. There is nobody in the machine (besides the videographer), which is simultaneously advancing forward and erecting a ring (i.e. building the tunnel). Each”
“Boring away [@boringcompany] Tunneling on a Sunday in Nashville. Great team. Great rock.”
“One day, Prufrock will beat the snail [@boringcompany] On a rainy day in Bastrop, Prufrock-5 has left the factory. Will begin tunneling by December 1. Hoping for a step function increase in speed.”
