Because Canada is also moving forward with developing a HSR corridor in the Eastern provinces, I think it would be smart to add a few links between the US and Canada. Considering Amtrak already serves Montreal and Vancouver, this is not out of the ordinary. So, I added three more lines to this map.
The Adirondacks Express connects Albany to Montreal. Creating a 3 hour train ride from NYC to Montreal.
The Manitoba Express connects Fargo to Winnepeg. I think this requires a equal partnership and committment from Canada.
The Alberta Express connects Butte, MT to Calgary and Edmonton. Most of this line is in Canada and should be paid for primarily by Canadians.
Because of these connections, I created a sister map called "High Speed Rail Canada" and can be overlaid onto this map.
