Cross country rail OTOH, is likely a big money waster in the US (and in some other places as well).

That's the thing cross country, hi speed rail doesn't have to be non stop. It can done much like airlines with certain cities serving as hubs. Hubs in NYC, Chicago and SFO with smaller hubs in say Cleveland and Denver would get people across the northern part of the country. And a similar line could exist in the South......hubs in either DC or Atlanta, Dallas, and LA with smaller hubs in say NOLA or Nashville and Phoenix. Each hub city would have feeder lines from neighboring cities.

The US and China are both about the same size physically and China has had no problem developing cross country lines.
