Assuming one 28-passenger capsule departing every 2 minutes (to match the requirement of 840 passengers per hour during peak hours), the Hyperloop station continuous loading/unloading sequence is based on a single compression and single decompression airlock, and the simultaneous management of 3 capsules during embarking and disembarking. The sequence is composed of 6 steps (between linear deceleration and linear acceleration):

1 – Compression. The capsule enters the compression airlock which equalizes the tube pressure with atmospheric pressure. For simplification purposes, this step is scheduled to last 1 minute.

2 – Arrival buffer. The capsule parks in the arrival buffer space, that can hold it up for a maximum of 5 minutes (until the buffer is full with 3 capsules)

3 – Arrival. All 3 capsules taxi simultaneously to the arrival terminal (1min), where passengers have 3 minutes to disembark.

4 – Departure. the three capsules then move over to departure, where passengers also have 3 minutes to embark.

5 – Departure buffer. The capsules taxi to the departure buffer (1min), where they wait in turn to enter the decompression airlock

6 – Decompression. The capsule enters the decompression airlock, which equalizes the tube pressure with the track low pressure. For simplification purposes, this step is scheduled to last 1 minute.
