712 miles, New York to Chicago is the closest — it would take 22 hours


Perhaps I’m confused.

If at 60 miles an hour driving, that’s around 12 hours driving.

Why spend billions on something so worthless?

I think it’s 22 hours by regular train due to a required stop in DC.

Just to edit after on that, a guy who works for me left this evening from Baton Rouge to New York.

Has an SUV with 6 adults. They are just gonna switch drivers through the night.

Saving them like 2k in costs.

Wtf is your point?
