<p>As a Californian, I'd have to say California. </p><p>As far as I know, California is the only state with a high speed rail plan in place and ready to go as soon as funding becomes available. California has also documented that the cost of adding equivalent capacity to existing highways and airports would cost 2-3 times as much. California has done its homework. </p><p>Regarding the Cascades, another good option, but the distances are shorter than in California so high speed is less essential. Washington's official goal is 125mph operation using existing Talgo equipment, which should be sufficient in that corridor. </p>
