The $8 billion devoted to high-speed rail in the stimulus package will result in a huge expansion of high-speed trains connecting cities throughout the country. In addition, President Obama is likely to increase funding for high-speed rail in his upcoming budget. The Federal Railroad Administration currently has a map designating high-speed rail cooridor designations. I've read where this is likely where the high-speed train routes will be. Note that it would connect Tulsa, Oklahoma City, Dallas, Austin and San Antonio. Let's try not to make this thread political. I just think it would be great if I could hop on a train here and visit my relatives in San Antonio.
