I tried to make it fairly realistic. Obviously I would like HSR absolutely everywhere, but a line through middle of nowhere Montana probably would not see much ridership and would come at extreme cost (especially in the mountains).

    One of the problems with this is that currently, a lot of these smaller city routes don’t have a lot of demand. You could maybe get one train per weekday from Des Moines to Chicago for instance, Thats if you stopped at Iowa City, Moline/Rock Island, and maybe outside Chicago.

    Same thing, like Tuscon to Albuquerque. Or any of the Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska lines.

    I think if these routes existed though, there would grow demand around that route tho.
