    Yeah but the thing isn’t moving the portal is, and the energy has to come from somewhere if the portal makes the thing go fast.

      The energy would come from the trolley. The people would launch out at approximately the same speed as the trolley interacts with them and the trolley would slow down in response to how much kinetic energy was transferred to the people.
