I’m trying to envision what would happen inside that tube at 760 mph when a sizable earthquake hits.

nothing worse than an airplane hitting the ground. we accept that happening once n a while as a part of living in a civilized society.

Two things. One, its not really good to be on a bridge or a train going 60 during an earthquake either. But they should be able to stop the train at the first hint of a quake. Then the question is, how do you get out.

I would think they should be able to make this earthquake resistant. Not meaning it could take a direct hit. But it should do well with most rumbling.
