Pressure failures is what happened to transit tubes. Usually with grisly results.
Comment on The return of pneumatic tubes

Make it an attraction, I’ll ride it.

“grisly results”. Are you sure? I think the pressure failure of the Titan submarine was a closer to “grisly”. Transit tube failure scores lower on the pressure failure scale. /jk

The Hyperloop was very successful, it prevented billions of dollars of investment in mass transit, then evaporated before it could reduce the market for cars.
