Sounds as unnecessary as that California thing. I don't like the sound of karst either, the ground is full of holes waiting to cave in:

Sinkholes can develop gradually as surface openings enlarge, but progressive erosion is frequently unseen until the roof of a cavern suddenly collapses. Such events have swallowed homes, cattle, cars, and farm machinery.

In Calif, there are enough people willing to pay for high speed travel between North and South and avoiding the airport headache.

Problem in China is that there aren't enough demands.

So far, they can get from Merced to Bakersfield. Well, in 2030.

What with delays in stations and renting a car at your destination,
may as well drive.

It will probably break a trillion dollars, if it's ever done.
