You can specify all you want but the changing political situation determines what actually happens. Also we don't have anything comparable to Tokyo to Osaka in the US. Those cities are about 300 miles apart (314 following the roads on the shortest Google maps path). Osaka has almost three million people in an urban areas of over 18 and a half million (more people in the city then Chicago, and almost 6 million more people in the metro area than the LA metro area). Tokyo has almost nine million people in the city (more than New York), and over thirty five million people in the metro area (#1 in the world, more than metro New York and metro LA combined). There are nearly 8 million people in the SF Bay Area and 18 million in the greater LA area..........more than enough people to support hi speed rail. In fact the arrangement is very similar to Tokyo and Osaka..........and when you factor in that I-5, the major freeway between LA and SFO, has become a slow moving parking lot and that both main airports are congested, causing significant delays, and the success of hi speed rail is nearly a slam dunk.
