http://www.fra.dot.gov/rpd/passenger/2243.shtml Also information there on scope of projects, funding, etc.

What purpose would a high speed rail from Cheyenne to Mexico serve, that just seems silly. There is nobody along that line except here in Denver and I-25 (the proposed route) is as high speed as a highway gets. I guess since the lines are there it isn't a big deal to put another train on the tracks but nobody will be on it. Bring back the Ski Train!!

I would like a high speed from Devner to Vegas and another to Lake Tahoe. No stops, right from the airport.
