How would it work? Train tickets are just soooo expensive already, who would use the service? There won't be any new regional centres - stopping there would slow the trains down too much, if you're going to have a high speed link Brisbane to Sydney it has to be non-stop to compete with air.

Let's face it, with the internet most business travel should already be obsolete. And a family holiday will be cheaper by car. Cairns - Brisbane is half the price and a tenth the time by air, there is a lot of catching up to do for a brand new system.
