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).

You have 6 States that have no routes that go through them and a few that have cities on the edge of the border. That’s at least 12 senators that would never let’s this pass on the federal level. I would love to see this happen but you have to have some connection in each state to get federal support.
