This isn’t a large infrastructure project. It’s a small project with the price tag of a large one and the timeline that people could start and retire careers on.
A train project like this in China would have taken 2 years and would have been about 1/10th of the cost. It would have the been the same in the US 90 years ago.
If you want examples of large infrastructure projects, look to FDR’s Dams.
