These systems are fascinating, really feels like a great loss now that parcel deliveries are higher than ever before.
I think these systems are really cool but it isn't clear that they are net positive. Even today I would suspect many parcels being too heavy or large for the tube system. You might just end up with the tube system AND vehicular delivery.
They also ended up switching to someone just driving a van - which they already had to have ready to go for when the tube system broke down for days at a time anyways.
