美德州高鐵將引進新幹線技術 計畫2021年運營○共同社(2015.10.26)

距離約400公里，90分鐘，是開始適合高鐵的最短距離。

Texas Central Partners (Texas Central)官網這樣說：

Texas Central Partners is developing a new high-speed passenger rail system that will connect Dallas/Fort Worth and Houston using a proven, world-class technology that will provide a travel time of less than 90 minutes.

Nearly 50,000 Texans, sometimes called “super-commuters,” travel back and forth between Houston and Dallas/Fort Worth more than once a week. Many others make the trip very regularly.

Texas Central Railway (TCR) and Texas Central Partners (TCP) are independent companies involved with the Project.  TCR has led the feasibility phase of the project, which includes completion of the EIS.  Texas Central Partners, LLC is the project developer and will use the EIS results and other selected information produced or provided by TCR, as well as information, designs, and engineering produced by TCP itself, to develop the high-speed rail system (“the Project”).  TCP will be the ultimate builder and operator of the Project.

By Texas Central considering the introduction of the N700-I technology as a “total system solution”, JRC intends to provide long-term and continuous technical support for the system, which means they will apply their years of experience to act in an advisory capacity to ensure the success of the project.

看起來是JV模式。
