America's high-speed train of the future
"Testing has revealed a number of incompatibility issues due to the lack of tracks built to accommodate high-speed trains—Acela shares tracks with commuter lines and freight lines—and the age of infrastructure in the Northeast, some of which dates back almost two centuries." -Wikipedia

What methods can be used to increase the speed of the Madrid-Barcelona line to 350 km/h, so that there are no problems with the ballast?
In 2011, the speed on this line was increased, but it was reduced again in 2016 because the gravel could have damaged the train. What methods can be used to prevent the problem? My other question is how can France drive at 320km/h on ballast without problems?

How can I get involved in HSR advocacy?
Basically title. I’m a high school senior planning on majoring in business in Illinois, and I recognize the immense benefits HSR could bring to my home state, so I was wondering how I might be able to get a job advocating for investment in HSR. Alternatively, are there any good volunteer groups that support HSR in Illinois and nationally?
