Here's a quote from that study:
Exactly what I have been saying! Though, 3hr40 for the train is a bit faster than I expected. But that was back then, it will probably be slower now in the same way all the other VIA operations have got slower.

Well, then the goal is to get VIA up to the point they could sustain their maximum of 90mph for as much as possible. That 300km route would be done in 2 hours. The question would be what is needed to do that? The other question would be whether it would be worth it?
