But when she learned that a 200-mile-per-hour Japanese-designed train might speed by every thirty minutes, just two hundred yards from her kitchen window, carrying travelers between Dallas and Houston, she was furious. There was the practical concern: how would she access the half of her property...…MenuLong before they heard about the Texas bullet train, Mary Meier and her husband were accustomed to companies coming after slices of their land.
