I am not a train expert, but i doubt that a 132km high-speed train line can be profitable. At 350km/hour, it would make the trip in 23 minutes. Is there really enough passangers to justify such an investment?...

Have you seen the crowd during the Autumn festival and during Chinese New Year that wanted to get out and travel or go back home to see their families? But, good question never the less. I think in the long run it will pay off for itself, plus keeping more automobiles off the streets is good.
