Compared to the Zephyr, this thing even looks like a government train.

“they’d like to cut the five and a half hour trip between here and Detroit to three hours 45 minutes.”

You can fly on the airlines for about $50 each way in under an hour. Do these idiot politicians (redundant) really think this will work? Never in a free market. Of course, that is their trump card...
