AMTRAK currently runs up to 150mph in the newer territory east of New Haven to Providence. If up-to-date power supply and signaling were installed on the rest of the corridor, along with bridge and track improvements, then we could have a true high-speed operation in our country. Would also be nice to see double track and electric-powered shuttles between New Haven and Springfield, MA. These trains could easily run up to 110mph like the Keystone Corridor between Harrisburg and Philadelphia/New York.
