Nepal to gets its first Hyperloop before East West Railway
21, Feb 2018 By Fake It Nepal
Kathmandu: Los-Angeles based Virgin Hyperloop One on Wednesday
signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Nepal government to
build and develop the world’s first operational hyperloop between Mechi and Mahakali.
This will decrease the travel time between Mechi and Mahakali to 2 hours. Even
though the final project delivery will take several years, experts are
confident that the hyperloop will be functional well before East West Railway.
East West Railway is a
project more mysterious than the Bermuda Triangle as nobody has been able to
figure out the purpose of the feasibility study conducted over a period of last
400 years for the East West Railway. The government has promised that the
railway will run in next few years, but that promise has been taken the
same way as ‘Voli Deki Raksi Bandh” promises. Now the experts have
weighed in and said that the proposed Mechi-Mahakali hyperloop will be
completed well before the first railway track reaches Koshi Barrage.
Talking to Fake It Nepal,
an old-timer expert with experience of 500 news debates said ,”Even though the
hyperloop is just an MOU and we will go through a long process of project
study, feasibility, budgeting, design, construction, testing, commissioning
etc, we can be fairly certain that it will be carrying passengers from Mechi to
Mahakali long before anything happens on the EW Rail project.”
Meanwhile, The
government was considering conducting another feasibility study of the East
West Railway project.
