A massive, justyfiable, freigh/passenger rail line stretching from the Gulf Coast to Quebec?

Cities as follows:

New Orleans
Mobile
Montgomery
Birmingham (Tuscaloosa & Lincoln)
Huntsville
Nashville (Spring Hill & Smyrna)
maybe Bowling Green
Louisville
Cincinnati
Dayton
Columbus:
STUB BRANCH: Pittsburgh
STUB BRANCH: Cleveland
Toledo
Detroit (Windsor)
London
Hamilton
Missassauga
Toronto
Oshawa
Ottawa
Montreal
Trois-Rivières
Quebec City

I think that would be one outstanding corridor if it were to be designated as a single line with freight and passenger trains traveling in each direction. Of course the branches to Pittsburgh and Cleveland would be timed to arrive in Columbus. I think it would do wonders.

Of course this kind of thing is highly unlikely to ever be established... but any thoughts?
