I love me some bullet trains, but there is a certain distance that makes planes way more viable.
There should be a lot more (and higher quality) high speed rail between cities of moderate distance, however.
"planes .. viable"
continuing to have a habitable planet should maybe be worth more to you than saving max. ~10 hours of journey time getting from one side of a continent to another.
