The Trump Organization is pledging to kill passenger rail service.
The speed limit on Nebraska 71 is 60 miles per hour on the 75 miles of bone-dry high prairie grassland between Crawford and Scottsbluff: it's potentially deadly during a blizzard.
US18/US85 between Hot Springs, South Dakota and Lusk, Wyoming is no better; besides, I-25, especially through the Denver metro, sucks at biblical proportions: so does flying through DIA with its likelihood of a strip search.
Construction on the estimated half-billion dollar Heartland Expressway connecting Rapid City with I-80 in Nebraska or Wyoming (nobody knows) is glacial if not completely stalled while traffic between the Black Hills and Denver continues to increase as does the volume between Denver and Santa Fe.
Is there any political will to construct an I-25E from Trinidad to Rapid City through Scottsbluff?

I-80 is a barrier to Wyoming's migratory pronghorn. They rarely cross the busy freeway. Here is a story of one that went to the other side. pic.twitter.com/Y3zlA8ZbRO— Matthew Kauffman (@wyokauffman) August 1, 2017
