Who's ready to ride in the pod tube? 500 mph in a small pod full of strangers, enclosed in a tube, with nobody steering.

People getting back and forth from Baton Rouge to New Orleans is not worth that kind of expense.

And Elon Musk obviously played with Micronauts when he was a kid.

There was a recent engineering competition at aTm focusing on the use this kind of system in Texas. Lots of business people frequently travel between their major cities. I could see this working there.

The Eastern Seaboard already has a decent commuter train system, but this could work there as well.
