This is an excellent article. Didn’t have an opinion before but now I think HSR is bullshit. Because physics. By similar analysis, I think hyperloops are bs as well though perhaps slightly less so because the load wear aspect is missing.

It’s 5 hours driving from Houston to Dallas. Not good for a full day of meetings. A PITA to get too and from the airport but only 45 min flight time. A two hour train ride could make it workable. There’s lots of intrastate tourism and business here but few good transpo options.
