The overhead comes from the government, otherwise air flights would be like taking a greyhound bus, and in the past, they used to be like that. Now the TSA is leaking to Amtrak and so on, so you might see similar delays in the future with rail!

High speed rail has a lot of land acquisition problems for the most part, air flight doesn't.
