<p>It's 43 years, not 50, but I agree the timeline is awfully long. Heck, the interstate highway system was mostly complete in 15-20 years. This could easily be done in the same time frame, if the political will was there. Unfortunately, the will isn't there yet. Thus I think this proposal reflects the current political realities. A lot of skeptics will be asking why annual rail spending should suddenly jump from $1.3 billion $5-8 billion. That alone is going to be a hard sell to the current "can't do" congress. </p><p>Still, if its a serious proposal and gets off to a solid start, it could build momentum and get going faster. </p>
