Is… is that a drawing of Hyperloop at the top of the article?

I think it's a drawing from the '20s. The hyperloop is just a rehashing of that stuff. Interestingly, that's one of the reasons we know the hyperloop isn't actually feasible -- a lot of work has been put into the idea from over a hundred years ago.
