The problem I see is the cost per minute of shortened trip time, say SF to Bskersfield. The possible stop-the-bleeding fixes are still going to be pretty darn expensive. How many minutes do you gain by, say, lowering the Madera to Bakersfield ideal speed of 200 mph to a best-case 125 mph? Enough to make a difference? At what cost per minute? Do you factor in the sunk cost of the stranded and unused 200 mph infrastructure? What would be the best projections for travel time of SF to Bakersfield via Port Chicago and then the HSR route south of Madera? Ditto for a still very costly route SF-Dumbarton-Altamont-Madera (what do the ACE trains now take in time over Altamont?) And then compare this to the timing of current Amtrak San Joaquins?
How might a Trumpian insurgent candidate exploit this by suggesting alternate extra public works money go to dams and water projects?
