Again, you're still doing what I said you shouldn't do. Compare those to highways to nowhere in the United States, or to many northern roafs in Canada. They are not used nearly enough to justify paying for their maintenance either, but we understand their necessity so that everyone is connected.

I mean, there’s also a non-high speed rail connecting those areas as well. The high speed rail was unnecessary.

It’s the same way we don’t have a six lane interstate going to Alaska from the lower 48, but a two lane road.

Upgrades to the rail system were necessary. The shared passenger and cargo lines weren't workable.
