Slow Speed Rail: Durbin and Quinn Excited about Train Trip of 4 Hours Between Chicago to St. Louis

The Chicago Tribune reports on happiness from Senator Dick Durbin and Ill. Gov. Pat Quinn:
When high-speed trains are eventually traveling up to 110 mph, the trip between St. Louis and Chicago could be cut by 90minutes to less than four hours.
Just a reminder, flying from Chicago to St. Louis doesn't take 4 hours. What a scam.
