No high-speed rail service in the world was achieved without a successful conventional-speed precedent. The huge expense & heavy political lift of high-speed rail is achieved only by a powerful political constituency & that is predominantly achieved through evolving the service.

Too bad they couldn't take a train from Cleveland to get on the streetcar and get around Cincinnati's revitalized urban core. The 79 mph 3C trains would have been running by now with planning/construction underway to boost speeds to 110 mph. If only....

We're not. We're advocating for the fastest trains that the political lift allows. No place in the world has gone from 0 trains to 100+ mph trains. It has required the evolution of service due to the evolution of a political constituency. If Ohio can do it, great. If not, evolve.
