Think of it, Portland to Seattle in an hour. No getting to and from airports, and all the hassle there. Kansas City to St Louis, about the same amount of time. New Orleans to Houston – ditto. Yep, Houston to Dallas. High speed trains just might work if we try.

Republicans are against high speed trains even tho Ayn Rand promoted them.

We need a NTA. National Train Association. I’d pay dues and get their newsletter in a heartbeat.

Bullet trains versus bullet rains. Do you think Matt Davies had that pun in mind when he did the cartoon?
