THey will at first be commuter trains then later high speed if it catches on. Now they are spending big money creating a second set of tracks so they don’t have to share them with freight trains.

By this I mean real high speed rail at speeds over 200 mph, not the fake high speed rail that has been sold to the American public with trains that only go a little over 100 mph.
