My dream is to have high-speed rail, that will go from Columbus, Wheeling, maybe Morgantown, then Pittsburgh and from Pittsburgh go to Youngstown, maybe Meadville, Erie, Jamestown, NY, and Buffalo, NY. Full-on Sci-fi would take that to Toronto. If you remove Columbus and Buffalo, we'd make the most amazing megalopolis.

Once that becomes super successful, they will connect it from Erie or Youngstown to Cleveland, Toledo, maybe Detroit, and then eventually Chicago.

Heck yeah, a Japanese bullet train goes 220mph which would be PGH-NYC in less than 2 hours. They could build it as an elevated track above the turnpike 😍

High speed rail to connect places a 2 hour drive apart with barely any traffic anyways? In the travel hot spot of the deadest parts of the rust belt?

Sounds like something PA would do.

That's not the insult you think it is, visionless car man.

Oh, if the ideas dont need to be realistic or good, then why not just make it a rocket ship route, instead of a high speed train?if this is the science fiction ask, why not star trek teleporters.
