No room for error there. I can see you in that seat, Dean.

Error? There is no error. Nothing can go wrong...Unfortunately, it will never happen in the US because the airline and auto lobbyists will kill it, even though it should be built here.

Yeah I seen that on CNN the other day, fuckin amazing. However I think the Jap's hold the record for the top speed of a train at 364mph.
Still amazing!

Dude, that is far and away the fastest speed on a train (steel wheel on steel rail). The Japs did theirs with Maglev...elevated magnetic propulsion. Not the same.

wow, what a rush of adrenaline! the fastest i've gone was as a passenger in a bmw m5 on the autobahn, going about 150mph. it was at night, so it was difficult to really get a sense of speed. i'm in my happy place right now thinking about driving on a smooth, beautiful, tree-lined, curvy road with NO other vehicles & NO innocent animals darting across the road.

Rail is the safest form of transportation, ever. Period.
