Portland and NYC are both major cities that would terminate a transcontinental service. The Oregon Trail actually terminated right outside of Portland, though it’s certainly the least-major of the 4 major west coast metros, one day it’ll be subsumed into Sea/Tac.
That train would have to go at least 300 miles per hour.
I’m seeing nothing but positives.
Wheeeeeeeeee!
The TGV has a top speed of 360 mph. Just hire some French engineers hon hon hon.
Dang I always thought you had to go maglev to beat 300 mph. I guess the US really does have a shot at the world’s fastest bullet train network.
200 mph, 12.5 hours and you’re alseep for most of it.
Only if there are no stops in between.
It’s called the coast to coast redeye, not the layover in Denver redeye!
Ain’t no red-eye if your got a cubbyhole bed!
yeah, once you get to the other coast you take a regional train to your final destination
