High-speed trains don't have a basis for reality? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinkansen

The hyperloop is not a high-speed train.

The Space-X rocket isn't a rocket.

The Tesla Roadster isn't an electric car.

See what I did there?

Those two statements are however false. As is calling the hyperloop a train. If it was a (fast) train, Musk likely would not have called it a fifth mode of transportation.

This isn't like any other high speed train in existence. The rail cars have more in common with a vtol jet than the train you linked.
