    Businessman Sir Richard Branson has given the world a sneak peak at his Virgin empire’s latest project – it’s planned high-speed hyperloop lines.Passengers sit in pods which look like sleek aircraft cabins.They then hurtle down a vacuum tube in a levitating pod at speeds of over 1,070 km/h / 670 miles an hour.Virgin has shared a step-by-step video of the passenger experience on board its hyperloop system, all the way from arriving at the station portal, to boarding, the journey itself and arrival.The hyperloop system features levitating pods that can carry up to 28 passengers through vacuum tubes which can go over and below ground, at high speed.Virgin Hyperloop has worked closely with US-based studio Teague which designed the passenger pods.They feature dynamic lighting and recessed seat wells to stop passengers feeling too claustrophobic.
