Mas, you live in So. Cal, it took me 4hrs. and 45 mins. to drive the 210 from Hollywood Fwy. to Pomona one time, about 50 miles, all traffic, bumper to bumper. 3 hrs. and 16 mins. from Houston to Dallas, not on your best day, more like 4 to 5 hours. The rail line is suppose to do it in 1hr 40mins.

I just found out that the distance between Dallas and Houston Texas is 240 miles, and is a 3 hour, 16 minute drive by car. There must be a lot of traveling between these two Texas cities to do this. But, I'd rather drive my car 3 hours, and still have my car to drive when I arrive. But, you have to start with short routes first, I suppose, before engaging in a larger scale high speed rail project. Sorta like testing the water.
