Hyperloop IS shit. Normal high speed rail isnt. It doesnt make sense to connect cities across the whole country, but HSR connecting californian cities, HSR connecting NYC region and Great lakes HSR makes sense.
超级高铁确实是狗屎。普通的高速铁路则不同，将城市连接起来是有意义的，但是将整个国家的城市连接起来并不合理，但是连接加利福尼亚州的城市、连接纽约市地区和五大湖地区的高速铁路是有意义的。

The issue is property rights and eminent domain. It’s a legal and bureaucratic nightmare to build systems like these in the US/Canada because it will inevitably involve the government forcing people to sell their land if it exists on top of any proposed route.
问题是产权和土地征用权。在美国/加拿大建立这样的系统是一个法律和官僚主义的噩梦，因为它将不可避免地会牵扯到政府强迫人们出售他们的土地，如果它存在于任何拟议的路线之上。

This is the same reason it’s extremely difficult to build unpopular projects like the border wall and oil pipelines. It goes through so many jurisdictions and effects so many people that they are flooded with legal and political challenges.
这也是为什么修建边境墙和石油管道等不受欢迎的项目极其困难的原因。它经过了太多的司法管辖区，影响了太多的人，以至于他们面临着大量的法律和政治挑战。

It’s a two edged sword I suppose. Large infrastructure projects that will benefit a large group of people will inevitably hurt a small group of people who are directly impacted by their construction due to their proximity to actual project. Kind of like how entire neighborhoods were destroyed in the 1960s and 1970s to build the interstate highway system we have today.
我想这是把双刃剑。大型基础设施项目将使一大群人受益，但不可避免地会伤害一小群人，这些人由于真正靠近这些项目而直接受到建设的影响。有点像20世纪60年代和70年代，为了建设我们今天的州际高速公路系统，有些社区整个都被摧毁了。

The California High Speed rail is a good example of that as well. Around 2000 land parcels need to be acquired and after 15 years there’s about 200 parcels still needed.
加州高速铁路也是一个很好的例子。大约需要收购2000块土地，15年后需要收购的土地还有大约200块。

I didn't say it wasn't profitable, I said they have massive amounts of debt. Those are two different things. Much of those railways, and the debt incurred as a result, was to pump up their GDP numbers. Their rail and housing policies are two aspects that have seriously rocked the Chinese financial system due to massive amounts of debt.

Most of the impressiveness of Chinese infrastructure is down to scale. They build tons and tons of it. Designers, engineers, workers, etc get better and better at it. They standardise every trainset, bridge, tunnel, electrical system so that they can produce it cheaply. The rest of the world has to do it piecemeal. One bridge and line at a time, then a pause, then another.
中国基础设施最令人印象深刻的地方在于规模。他们造了很多很多。设计师、工程师、工人等在这方面做得越来越好。他们将每一列火车、桥梁、隧道和电力系统标准化，这样他们就能以低廉的价格生产这些东西。世界其他国家只能零敲碎打。一次一座桥，一条车道，然后暂停，然后另一个。

Actually if you look up HSR km by population or sqkm then China is not at all impressive. Japan, Korea, Spain, and plenty of European countries are way ahead. China's claim to glory is the speed at which it built the system.

China is interesting because they brought rails to an area of the world that hadn’t had it before. The very idea of time and how we view time in terms of specific hours is a very recent one. Like how European cities had clock towers, in America the towns had train stations.
中国很有趣，因为他们把铁路带到了一些曾经没有过铁路的地方。时间的概念以及我们如何用特定的小时来看待时间是最近才出现的。就像欧洲城市有钟楼一样，美国的城镇也有火车站。

These kept to a schedule and had a clock so everyone could know what time it was. This was a massive change and before this people literally didn’t use specifics when referring to time. Now, giving people a specific time to do something is considered the norm.

Canada doesn’t have the population density to justify nationwide high speed rail. The revenue collected won’t be enough to pay off the rail lines that service low density areas. So only the Quebec City - Montreal - Ottawa - Toronto - Windsor corridor has the population density to support a high speed rail line. Many routes in China’s high speed rail system aren’t money makers and the company that builds and operates it is in heavy debt.
加拿大没有足够的人口密度来支撑全国性的高铁。征收的税收将不足以支付服务于低密度地区的铁路费用。因此，只有魁北克市-蒙特利尔-渥太华-多伦多-温莎走廊的人口密度足以支撑高速铁路线。中国高铁系统中的许多线路都不赚钱，建造和运营这些线路的公司负债累累。

Are there 1.3 billion Americans? I'm not saying we shouldn't build more railway infrastructure, but Chinese East Coast is VERY densely populated. These kind of transport systems are even more necessary and useful than in other countries. Plus, the Chinese State doesn't have any issues "buying" land from people in order to build the lines. In normal countries it's quite difficult to expropriate that amount of land fastly.

Seeing as this is a post about HSR, I imagine the comment about the US being "too big for trains" specifically referred to HSR. As the US does have regular speed trains.
鉴于这是一个关于高铁的帖子，我想关于美国“对火车来说太大了”的评论特指的是高铁。就像美国有常规高速列车一样。
