I am of the opinion the reason why we haven't built HSR is because of the political power of small communities..... HSR will only stop at major cities along any route..... <br />Never-the-less, slower speed commuter type trains such as the Colorado diesel car train can and should operate on the HSR routes serving the smaller towns.... Its vital that any HSR rail line be double tracked..... <br /> <br />Amtrak operates its trains today as a local through, whereas a HSR operation will be an express through.....
