This is meant to evolve into a citywide transportation system where you choose your destination at the outset. Each pod can navigate itself, switch tunnels, and wind up closer to your destination than a subway could ever hope to as there will be far more stops (multiple thousands across the city instead of < 500).

Clearly the airport express route is meant to be the beginning of something much larger.

Trains would not make sense for such a system.
