High Speed Rail In The Northeast -- Fastest Amtrak Train Average 66 MPH Boston To NYC -- By Car: 3:32 -- By Train: 3:35 -- NYT Is Now Drawing Fantasy Maps -- Wednesday, April 2, 2025

Locator: 48415PINOCCHIO.

  • high-speed rail (250 mph) between Seattle, Washingon, and Portland, OR
    • the two states can't even agree on an old-fashioned bridge across the Columbia River
