I thought we were done with this, but here come the debunking videos:

Adam Something: So Someone Reinvented Trains (Again...)

Low effort, mocking the original promo with a new soundtrack.

Alan Fisher: Parallel Systems Autonomous Pod Train is an Obvious Grift

This one is better. It mentions the Megaswing, and also Road Railers. This is similar to the Talgo train (Including the AMTRAK Cascade that passes through town 2 or three times a day.) with one truck per car. My alltime favorite locomotive is the original Talgo:



Can't sleep, clowns will eat me....

Anyways the objections raised are, I think, mooted because this autonomous packetized delivery system will be in tunnels.
