The Hoover dam was created out of a need for water storage and power generation.
Again, define a viable bullet train route that is worth the required investment. The NE corridor may meet that, but no one wants to contemplate the disruptions its construction would cause.
Also I would think the Hoover Dam would never be built today due to the massive regulatory requirements, and the ability of a small group of environmental nutjobs to torpedo the project via lawsuits.

Bullet trains are sorta like The Concorde, they can't operate without subsidies.
Plus most of us are wealthy in comparison, and can afford to fly home to see our relatives instead.nice train! When the government is a totalitarian one, and they don't have to deal with labor unions, things such as this can be achieved.
