Since the front of the train is the only part exposed to a 300mph impact, couldn't that be mitigated by the material and shape of the nose? Since it is already designed to deflect air efficiently, I imagine any bird in its path would also be deflected. May not be great for the bird, but I don't think the train would be hurt.
