We need to produce transcontinental high speed rail to connect America. Everyone who is homeless or without a job will be employed for the project and paid a good wage, making our unemployment zero. We will connect Fairbanks, Alaska to Anchorage, Alaska all the way down to Key West, Florida. We will also have Blackhead, Canada connected all the way to Cabo San Lucas. It will be one of the largest projects on earth and set the stage for the complete high speed railwayification of America.

>>545952762That road to Newfoundland is actually a 4.5 hour long ferry.
>>545952762cool story. did you know all of our governments are controlled by talmudic jews who want to enslave, poison, and kill everyone? anyway cool fanfic
>>545952762Why would this make us great again?

>>545952762Get rid of these disgusting disingenuous evil ,fucking filthy grotesque gruesome ghastly ghoulish GARGOYLE goblin pernicious putrid parasitic pedophile JEWS & their repulsive rotten rabbinical schmeckle slashing talmudic torah terrorists
>>545953154>Why would this make us great again?Having zero unemployment would mean we would be in a new golden age by definition. People would be able to spend and buy in undreamed of quantities with purchasing power.Also being able to reach any part of America in a few hours, instead of 90+ hour drives that take weeks.
>>545952762>connecting nothing in Alaska to nothing in Key West>connecting Baja to VinlandThere's a reason infrastructure doesn't just go to random remote locations, you know.
>>545953191You do know that almost nobody really lives at these far north places, right?
>>545952762Fundamentally impossible under current conditions I'm afraid. See California's attempt and how all the money allotted was pocketed. I can't think of any group that won't just steal the money in your country. My country is similar so I'm not throwing stones. The situation is just as it is.
>>545953045>That road to Newfoundland is actually a 4.5 hour long ferry.Why is there no road / bridge?
>>545953325They're pretty clearly map painting, and shrugging the obvious logistical problem of putting thousands of miles of maglev train through what is essentially primordial forest. They haven't considered what the purpose would be or why trains go where they do.
>>545952762BumpA good day's manualLabor is fabulous for the soul.
>>545953325https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ChisasibiPopulation (2021)[4] • Total 4,985That's more than most US towns.
>>545953389That would be one hell of a project. I don't know what's going on with the current energy project in that region though, maybe there's some general infrastructure expansion planned to go with it/make it easier.
>>545953389Perhaps because it's over 70 miles of the North Atlantic and connects nothing, dumbass? Do you want to put a maglev there too?Why would they create the world's greatest engineering marvel of a bridge so two obscure, sparsely populated regions can be connected and maybe 5 people a day can cross.
>>545953454That's why most towns don't have a train station. That's literally, by definition, a village. Negligible goods or people enter or exit
Ninety minutes from New York to ParisUndersea by rail
>>545952762That seems like a bit of a random ass-pull of a route. I'd look more at projected 2040 overland shipping routes. Though it'd piss truckers off since they'd lose their jobs/be force to retrain. Another thing I'd look at is intracity public transport (trams, trollies, subways, metro, what-ever-you-want-to-call-them) since moving around inside a city is often as hard or harder than getting between them.
>>545952762>Everyone who is homeless or without a job will be employed for the projectno they wouldn't, they don't all have the physical condition to labor retard
>>545953592Good taste
>>545953454It's fly-in only. You can't even drive there.
I am just going to use this thread to say:>Everyone should visit Newfoundland onceSee the icebergs, they are very cool.
>>545953654Ignoring that they dont need as much unskilled labor anymore
>>545953625you've clearly never driven across the country. i drove from NY to the middle of the country 7 times, that's the route you take
>>545953389One of the longest bridges in the world is to PEI, and that's a fraction of the distance.It would costs tens or even hundreds of billion dollars. And an insane amount of engineering.
>>545952762>>545952776No. I'll die before I let shitskins have that much freedom of movement.
Big truth here: the only reason why America hasn't built that is because American car companies oppose that even though they outsource most of their shit in other countries
>>545953690I didn't see one, unfortunately. I did hike the entirety of Gros Morne, though.
people too scared to leave their hometown be like>why would i want this?
>>545952762The only way is to kys.
According to my estimations from ChatGPT,if we built a high speed rail from Blackhead, Canada to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, assuming we build a bridge connecting Saint Barbe to Blanc-Sablon, it would take between 35-40 hours travel, as opposed to a 101+ hour car ride.This is HUGE.
>>545953532I'd day at least 1000 people use the ferry every day. They were pretty big boats.Still, not worth it. Although it would make groceries considerably cheaper there.
>>545953824There are people who travel and do holiday visits you know?
>>545953874>Through fucking LabradorNigga what the fuck are you doing.
>>545953325The existence of a railroad created a lot of new cities, made new population centers, and brought a bunch of jobs to otherwise subsistence small towns. My problem is I don't think our government is capable of building something like this. 99% of the funds will be embezzlement through contracts, and what does go to building will be hiring third worlders and nigger bitch hr/office workers. Without meaningful punishment for corruption, nothing can be done
>>545952762You want us to make a pathway for spics to demographically replace Maine, the whitest state in the country? No way DSA
>>545953750You have no idea how many Jeets a high speed rail system will holocaust. They can barely co-exist with steam engines.
>>545954033People don't want to live where the winter is like that. Even the northern cities in Ontario and Quebec, nobody wants to live there. Timmins, Sudbury, Thunder Bay, Sault ste. Marie, they're all shitholes. Timmins is cold as shit for a few months of the year, and it isn't even that far north.Although I was surprised to learn some Jeets live up in Iqaluit. Mostly running the Tim Hortons and shit, of course.
>>545952762>Just give the homeless jobsAnon I.... I have to admire the optimism
a bridge between Russia and USA, connecting Dalian, China, to Vladivostok, Russia, to Yakutsk, Russia, to Anchorage, Alaska and going all the way down to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Could you just imagine how amazing that would look on a map?
>>545954091Nah, western culture will install guardrails so deaths would be minimal.
>>545952762Good idea, but most people are low-IQ mouth breathers that do not understand the appeal of competent logistics. Railroad is the most efficient method for overland transportation. Competence is not attention-grabbing like dumbass vanity projects such as triumphant arches.
>>545953819That's unfortunate, but still a nice trip.
>>545953715So? How many people happen to travel from New York to where you were going regularly? You don't plan major national infrastructure around this one trip this one guy made a handful of times in their life, you focus it based off of the most commonly/heavily used routes with branches to those less traveled places to get the most out of it. Kind like airlines. I'm sure everyone would love a direct flight from where they are to where they want to go, but that's just not feasible.I've personally made the trip from western N.C. to central Florida over a dozen times but I'm not about to use that as the standard for when a national infrastructure project should be designed around.
>>545952762Oh, yeah, sweet, we can ship niggers and jeets to the interior faster than ever!
>>545952762We don't want your shitty rail system
Having trouble connecting Bahía Lapataia to Fairbanks Alaska. It seems road way stops around Apartadó, Columbia. I don't know if there is a way around the Panama Canal.
>>545954400>Those guardrails will be purchased from China or one of Trump's cronies
>>545954033>The existence of a railroad created a lot of new cities, made new population centers, and brought a bunch of jobs to otherwise subsistence small towns.This, Kansas and Nebraska won't exist without railroads.
>>545954822Don't care, not happening.
>>545953293>new golden age by definition.>People would be able to spend and buy in undreamed of quantities with purchasing power.That's not how economics works, genius. The only thing they'd be able to buy is a train ticket, assuming they even had the materials to finish the project. People make stuff, then, and only then, people use that stuff that was made, and Keynes was a mouthbreathing faggot who was wrong about everything. Congratulations. You now understand economics.>Also being able to reach any part of America in a few hours, instead of 90+ hour drives that take weeks.They're called airplanes
>>545953375As a Fagifornian I resent this.Sure we've spend 60 BILLION dollars for a few miles of track, but when it's done it will link the glorious cities of Bakersfield and Fresno using ultra-high speed bullet trains.>>545953798Long trips like this are not competing with American cars, but rather, American airlines.
Could you imagine,>Lebanon, Kansas, the geographical center of Contiguous United States would be connected to all parts of both east and west coast. We turn Lebanon, Kansas into the new capital of America and it gains more population in Lincoln, Nebraska in a decade.
>>545955056>They're called airplanesPeople hate airplanes. They suck. You get harassed by the TSA.
>>545955110>Long trips like this are not competing with American cars, but rather, American airlinesAlso Delta, United, and Southwest.
>>545953375>Fundamentally impossible under current conditions I'm afraid. See California's attempt and how all the money allotted was pocketed.That was due to Elon Musk literally using his billionaires to stop it. US simply doesn't have a strong government like China does. Capitalists shouldn't have any say or power over national infrastructure projects.
Why??? WHY?!?!?!?!WHY WON'T SOMEONE SPEND $500,000,000,000 TO CONNECT [shithole where nobody lives or works] to [shithole where nobody lives or works]?????? It would be so epic!!!!!!!!
>>545955681>WHY WON'T SOMEONE SPEND $500,000,000,000 TO CONNECT [shithole where nobody lives or works] to [shithole where nobody lives or works]?????? It would be so epic!!!!!!!!1. That money is being spent on infrastructure in America. It can't be outsourced by definition. It created jobs. That money goes right back into America.2. It would more or less rebirth the heart land. There won't be "shitholes" on those tracks. We will see massive growth in the heart land. One of my dreams is to turn Kansas and Nebraska into highly densely populated states in America. It will be protective as well. Ensuring of population center is no longer at threat of flooding or invasion, being that far inland.3. It will allow for transportation form all coasts in case of war or invasion. You have to look at the big picture.
>>545952762What kinda faggot uses km when traveling on a road.Go back to urope
The Winnipeg-Sarles-Lebanon-Starbase high speed rail line.
>>545954385A tunnel is a better choice because that would avoid problems with thick pack ice pushing against the bridge pillars.
>>545955857>That money is being spent on infrastructure in America. It can't be outsourced by definition. It created jobs. That money goes right back into America.i.e. retarded keynesian bullshit. Money isn't real. Stuff is. Stuff like steel and hours of a man's life. You'd be wasting tangible resources for a shinier version of something that already exists. Resources that your redundant project would never replace.
>>545953154Cannonball run 2.0
>>545953654I wouldn't want junkies and negroes assembling a high speed rail.
>>545952762No. We take all of Utah Colorado Nevada California. And we do it without Christianity.
>>545952762>Train to the MaritimesFor what purpose?
>>545953375>think of any group that won't just steal the money in your country.Correct. It would just be looted in a million different ways. Plus the environmental reviews would kill it.
>>545953532>maybe 5 people a day can cross.Double that traffic to ten, maybe even 12 on holiday weekends, you fucking luddite.
>>545956684>You'd be wasting tangible resources for a shinier version of something that already exists.we got high speed rail now?!
>>545958303>Plus the environmental reviews would kill it.the current car based travel system is way worse for the environment.
Im sure its all been said but OP the giant faggot and your faggot dream is all fun and games.....until niggers ...and we all know noggers would ruin this in about a week... if you dont think so, go rufe a subway or take a bus across country..just go 200 miles that will be enough and you will realize hyper rail in the USA, would be a huge waste of money
>>545953389Canadians hate bridges. Did a road trip through Quebec and the various New provinces on the east coast last summer and was amazed at how many more miles I had to drive just because theres like one bridge in a 60 mile radius.Very strange. Still a worthwhile experience though very beautiful paysage.
>>545958873No. Better. Roads and airports.
>>545952762I always love the first couple of weeks after an american election on /pol/. All of the campaigns are still spending all the money they have left in the bank and wind up spending it on horseshit threads like this or walkable cities (which only ever comes up between october and december in an election year on /pol/) or whatever other nonsense you think you can use to gain support for leftist politicians
>>545952762This nigga is a bean eatin' motherfucker.Beast thread on /pol/ right now.
>>545961175do you think people don't support high speed rail because it's cool? can anything be organic anymore and not be paid shill campaign?
Imagine a world without spics, arabs, slavs, or niggers. A world of white people, united with grand international projects like this.
>>545961495Sorry we dont need talkers. Out
>>545952866Mexicans and blacks ride free. Asking them to show a ticket would be racist. Also disable security cameras because they might make people racist. We have to make the worst possible decisions for public finance and safety because fighting racism is more important than continuing to exist as a country, culture, or people. If you question it then clearly you want to shovel Jews into an oven.

>>545952762>>545952776>>545953191>>545953874>>545955429Why do you lot keep making trains deep into Canada, nothing is there. 90% of their population lives south of Seattle, and within 9 miles of the US boarder. Some of those destinations are like resort towns that are closed all winter. Builtinflg a high speed rail between Olympia and Memphis would quite literally have several orders of magnitude more traffic than anything the same length inside of Canada. The only stop on the entire west side in Canada should be Vancouver. There’s nothing North until Anchorage. You wouldn’t be able to maintain the line out there making it incredibly stupid. Literally just connect the top 25 population centers within the US with the straitest rails with the fewest stops. That is all we should do.

>>545961855Quebec City to Tijuana.Explain to me how this is wrong.
Standardize new double tracks on major routes to 18' 8.5" for almost 2x Hitler's 3M track gauge!!!Train would be over 25' wide and allow perpendicular roll on roll off parking of even extended E-350 class vans.Such a train moving at over 200mph on flat track could land and launch aircraft as if they were VTOL. Put some fold out platform extensions of the train roof for better safety margin. main landing gear wheel track width of the Airbus A220 (both the -100 and -300 variants) is 6.63 meters (21 feet 9 inchesRail-to-Rail Outer Width: If you measure strictly from the far left rail of the first track to the far right rail of the second track (using the standard 14-foot spacing), the width is approximately 18 feet, 8.5 inches.The "troubled" CA HSR might be worth it if you could RORO cars and big trucks for Gay Area to LA.
>>545955110kek'd
>>545961855A slightly more polished version. Just from Anchorage to Tijuana, try to keep as close to coastline as possible.
>>545952762printing money to build actual shit?what are you some kind of communist?
>>545962368trick is the new upgraded tracks could be used by the super train as "single track" or normal or high speed regular width trains.
>>545952776This plan services a lot of Canada but none of the fucking Pacific coast. Why does Alberta deserve the stops?
With what money
>>545953389Too long, especially going over the North Atlantic, which can see sea ice, and ice bergs, along with hurricanes and frequent nor'easter storms. If a fixed road or rail link to the island ever did happen, it would be a tunnel under the strait of belle isle between Forteau in Labrador, and Flowers Cove on the northern peninsula, which is 16km wide at it's narrowest point. The Newfoundland government has done numerous feasibility studies over the years, and while it would be technically feasible in engineering terms, it would be a 20 year project, which would run at least 5 billion dollars. With the biggest issue being the sheer isolation of the crossing point, it's a 30 hour drive from Quebec city, with almost no population or economic activity along the way, plus a further 10 hours across the island to reach the capital of St. John's... Which has maybe 200k people. If you had twinned rail lines for a bullet train and regular freight rail going the whole way then it would be less idiotic, but still pretty stupid. Makes much more sense to just terminate the continental rail at the Nova Scotia ferry terminal, and pick it up on the island after the boat ride.

>>545961495You forgot to remove jews. But good plan. We should build more NPP to decrease our dependency on foreign oil and decouple ourselves from the middle east and invest in Canadian uranium extraction. With the surplus energy, we could operate factories at a reduced cost, bringing manufacturing jobs back to the US. These new NPP and factories could be built along the new high speed rail, reducing transportation costs. New homes could be constructed to house employees of the NPP, factories and rail giving rise to new towns.
Bring back blimps forget the roads and railways.
Connecting Alaska is the equivalent of trying to find a needle in a haystack. This was the best I could get.
Looks like most people outside of Anchorage live on the Kenai Peninsula.You can get from Fairbanks to Circle to Mud Bay to McCarthy to Valdez, which is a port city.Juneau, the capital, is impossible to get to without a ferry.
