        I wouldn't love high speed trains. We already have to heavily subsidize regular train travel.

        Nope. There's no demand. We are car people. There is no such thing as a successful privately owned railroad, either.

        No if we wanted high speed trains we’d have them. Too costly to ride, no transportation when you arrive, best routes covered by air

        Hey Sharyl, high speed rail would be good for freight. Move a lot of tractor trailer traffic off our interstate highways.

        Because it's done by government which ALWAYS fails. Leave it to private industry and if it's viable, it'll thrive.

        High speed trains are nice, but they don't really fix the problem of too many workers unable to afford to live near their work

        High speed rail will not work in U.S except for certain elitist corridors where the people deserve to spend more time in traffic.

        Passenger rail will always lose money. Euros heavily subsidize and push freight to trucks, resulting in awful traffic jams.

        Not really cost effective, & difficult to find place to be able to build the rails needed. (paraphrasing dad - RR xportation consultant).
