For what it’s worth, Brightline Florida isn’t quite considered high speed by most metrics. It will have a short 125 mph section, which is kinda the minimum design speed to be considered high speed. The state of rail in the US is so bad though that Brightline Florida might actually have a higher average speed than the Acela…

Brightline West between southern CA and Las Vegas will be designed as a deticated high speed line though.
