From The Newsroom: Bullet Train Talk Becomes Public Forum; Neuroscientist Demystifies Fright

Japan Railway Company
Bullet trains in Japan can hit 200 miles per hour. Texas may get one just as fast.

Top stories this morning from the KERA Newsroom: Remember that future dream train purported to zip from Dallas to Houston in 90 minutes?  Public hearings on the plan start next week. Robert Eckels of the Texas Central Railway lays out the blueprint in this week's Friday Conversation. And Lauren Silverman tours a haunted house with a brain expert.

Lyndsay Knecht is assistant producer for Think.
