Kyle- I hope that is your name, otherwise i look lik a bit of a dolt <br /> <br />Electrification of all RR lines would cost a Fortune <br /> <br />Laying an RR line (RR track) today would cost about 750,000 - 1 million per mile. <br /> <br />Electrifying it wouldn't cost quite as much, but would cost a fair bit. <br /> <br />But it might be done, 150 MPh is fast, and if the advantages exceed the Expendatures, there would be no reason for it not to be done. <br /> <br />However, I do worry, Electric lines to break down frequently, The 2 montains line up here is busted tongiht, has been for that last few days.. somehting somehwere is causing a blocked current. <br /> <br />I like the idea, though.
