    The US still have a lot of rail infrastructure from the gilded age and big monopolist eras, im assuming that they're just going to refurbish those lines for high speed rail. I have no idea how that's supposed to work though.

      They didn't say anything about high speed homie. These are gonna be $1000/ticket luxury sleeping cars, not mass transit.

          Close, there charging $25 billion for plans about how to best polish 100+ year old railroad tracks (that the state owns and will need to gift to Amtrak).
