hmmm, as I live under the flightpath of FAT, and have F-16's ripping out three times a day, fast moving things are not new to me...
(this is going to involve math huh...)
If Fresno to SF is 4 hrs by a car doing 60 mph (I'm rating slower because most 'drive times are three and a half, -but folks average something like, 70+, --except that stop in LosBanos to hit the head...
--- that puts SF at, what...
240 miles away??? (as crow flies?,) (and that's city limits... not 'downtown...')
I'm guessing here...
To go 240 miles in a quarter of an hour...
That means that the train is going to go...
er...
hang on.....
double 240mph to make it there in a half hour...
480...
-throw on another what...120?
600mph... ?
(I do this right?)
(ahhh, math and dyslexia... don't mix the two.)
This thing rolls at 600 mph?
-that's faster than most airliners currently cruise, right?
-We have any of these things up an running anywhere on the planet yet?
Fresno to SF in 15 minutes...
