interesting that they elevate the rail line instead of having it on ground. ig it would be more expensive to build and maintain but better for people on ground...maybe its because HSR requires smooth slopes or something.
one of the common complaints about rail/roads going through farmland is that it splits the farm in half and makes it much harder to cross, this shouldn't be a problem with elevated rail.

My guess is that elevating the line helps reduce the risk of flooding making the line impassable.
