Japan’s high speed trains run upwards of 200 miles per hour while Amtrak’s Acela can only go its top speed of 150 for short stretches. The reason? Outdated infrastructure. After World War II, the US invested in cars, not trains, and today its passenger railways lag far behind countries in Europe and Asia. Harvard Business School professor Rosabeth Moss Kanter lays out a new vision for US transportation in her book “Move: Putting America’s Infrastructure Back in the Lead.”
