The Hiawathas  had a sign that stated in no uncertain terms "Slow to 90." This was back in the steam days.If such trains driven by men who dont allow fear to replace duty to get the passengers to point B as fast as thier infrastructure and engines will allow were common back then, why arent we running dedicated isolated tracks 200-250 mph today?Something was lost along the way, possibly a unwillingness to spend dollars to upgrade and constantly seek high speed.Amtrack 110-140 is not too shabby. But it isnt possible the entire corridor. New Carrollton and near Aberdeen you can get up and run. But there is just too much slow stuff messing up the place.I am not going to make a speech but the powers that be need to feel a determination from the bottom of the bridge abutments all the way to congress to upgrade, repair and make 150+ possible the entire length of the corridor.I would close that corridor. Dynimate all the old stuff. Pave the thing down to packed dirt and rebuild it all. We can participate in reconstruction over seas but cannot replace a old bridge casterating a HST down to 30 mph. hmph. Typical.Then make more of these corridors across the USA. That would be a start.
