Let's say a high speed train has a capacity of 1000 people per trip (I have no idea what the actual figure might be). Eventually, whoever is operating the railroad is going to need to move twice as many people. They can either build another train and the associated infrastructure or they can cram as many people as possible into the trains they already have. Which option is a corporation of government most likely to do?
This is what Japan is already dealing with. Imagine if everyone who was flying had to take a train instead:
Don't get me wrong - would much prefer to see a massive investment in rail travel to the detriment of air travel. I just don't think it's going to be feasible without a MASSIVE investment, which I don't see happening.
