Looking at the Federal Railroad Administration's high speed rail Pacific Northwest Corridor and what it would be like to build a true HSR line from centered around from Vancouver British Columbia to Eugene, Oregon via Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington. The route runs through the Willamette River Valley in Oregon, then along mostly Interstate 5 through the hearts of Portland and Seattle before crossing over to Canada and finishing the trip on BC99 before reaching the core of Vancouver. Where will go? How much will it cost? Is it worth building? Find out inside.
