It's very easy to argue against building a high-speed train network between Sydney & Melbourne based on big distances and low populations between these centres but I believe the positives out weigh the negatives. Consider this; 10,000,000 people travel between Melbourne/Canberra/Sydney each year! That is more than enough to sustain a high speed train network. Consider also the benefits that the long neglected regional centres would gain and things start to stack-up. Imagine living in Albury/Wadonga and taking a 40 minute train ride to work in either Melbourne or Sydney.
