Today we're tacking high speed rail again, but this time we're going to the Midwest/Great Lakes region, where the network gets complex. Chicago will be ground zero for our network, but we're going to analyze connections to an astounding number of cities, including:
- Milwaukee, Madison, and Minneapolis/St. Paul
- Des Moines and Omaha
- St. Louis and Kansas City
- Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Dayton and Columbus (with consideration for Louisville)
- Toledo, Cleveland, Akron, and Pittsburgh (with consideration for Youngstown)
- Grand Rapids, Lansing, Detroit, London (Fake), Hamilton, and Toronto (with consideration for Kitchener, South Bend, and Ann Arbor)
