there will be no theater until a terrorist attacks it and then it will be exactly the same

We've had terrorists attacks on trains around here, and the only theater we have is a super quick xray scan of our baggage.
If you offer me the same price for flying than for taking the high speed train, I'll take the train every time.
In practice it'll take less travel time, no security lines or theater (no problem bringing your water bottle or whatever), you can bring more luggage, you can stand up/walk/visit the bar during the trip, you go from city center to city center so you don't have to spend an extra in taxis... I just arrive there 20-30 minutes before the train leaves and that's all.
