Who needs all that Fancy Japanese bullet train tech? Just give the contract to Boeing. Or maybe recycle all those decrepit MD-80’s American was flying up until just recently. Jet trains!

They did try jet trains in France ...It was too noisy and too inefficient

We did jet trains in the US as well. Both real jets:
And gas- turbine powered trains:
The collapse of private passenger rail and the oil crisis of the ‘70s did away with such things though.

Have to be careful with those though, some of them really want to be boats:

I think that just proves my point- we like our transportation loud and inefficient!

Hmmm, what if we also put some aerodynamic lifting surfaces on the train. Then we could eliminate the need for rails!

Those are actually the MAX fuselages that Boeing is dumping in the Puget Sound.

Looks like they just swiped an engine pod off of a B-47. I wonder how loud that was.

It’s like something I would’ve built out of Legos when I was 7.

Derailment and they dumped a load of 737s into the Clark fork river in Montana. I think this was 2017.
