High speed rail generally goes a bit faster than 300km/h. At that speed a lot of things are less than 4 hours away. Chicago is a bit less than 4 hours from NYC

High speed rail generally goes a bit faster than 300km/h. At that speed a lot of things are less than 4 hours away. Chicago is a bit less than 4 hours from NYC at that speed, as is Seattle from San Francisco. San Francisco to Seattle is obviously not a great candidate for a high speed rail line because it doesn't pass through much of interest, but it gives a good sense of the scale.
- __boos 6y agoWith train you can have the tesla experience i.e. not driving and reading, watching movies, working, eating on train restaurant while moving at 350 KM/h. In Europe we use them because you can go about 10 minutes before a train leave and carry as much as luggage do you need, plus they are usually cheaper.
