Tree Kaput. Mass versus momentum will sawdust it. The problem is armoring the front to withstand those and bird strikes. The Earth movement is just one challenge. Seperating this railway from all possible conflicts with wildlifes, suicides, grade crossing etc... is going to be so worth it if you can make it really isolated and safe.With that in mind, the idea of such a train traveling anywhere there is a tree branch growing is ludicrous. I doubt the construction crews will allow such trees nearby to the ROW.Japan sits on the fire at the Pacific Rim. We would need to worry about our own New Madrid Fault apparently companies like Autozone built buildings in Memphis that should ride it out. Problem is Memphis will probably be destroyed and that building be a unnecessary one.You get going, you dont stop.Snow probably will not be allowed to sit on a track long enough to affect train travel. One of the secrets to winter trucking I used was the mass air blast that gathers just under the radiator and drive fast "Blowing" the snow off the pavement and clearing a path for a while until several inches accumulate.I think some of you are working too hard on the flying bit. Anytime a large object leaves the runway it is now a airborne object confronted with all the issues to flight. Defective units dont fly long or at all.In the USA, all problems can be solved when enough dollars are accumulated.
