Isn't that the old message sending system they use to use in some office buildings and I think is still being used in like drive through banking? I like how Futuroma portrays it.

Not quite, this new system totally removes the air from the tubes to remove the friction it causes so that less energy is expended moving the capsule along. In the old pneumatic message system, air was only partially removed from the tubes. The capsules were moved by air pressure alone. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_tubeHere's ET3's website which has more information on how this proposed transportation system works. www.et3.com/
