I tried to make it fairly realistic. Obviously I would like HSR absolutely everywhere, but a line through middle of nowhere Montana probably would not see much ridership and would come at extreme cost (especially in the mountains).

I like the one line between Edmonton and Calgary. Mostly for how accurate it would be. I live in the middle of that forest in the North West of the picture and while a passenger train technically exists, it is intentionally inconvenient for some reason- requiring at least one night stay in a National Park.

Public transport has been a nightmare for a long time but having Greyhound shut down on us made it impossible to travel anywhere without a car.
