A few impressions from my trip yesterday on board the #Brightline #Florida 🇺🇸 service from #Orlando #MCO Airport to downtown #Miami. Interesting train station architecture here and very nice at-seat service in Premium/First.

#Orlando, FL, 🇺🇸 to #Miami, FL with #Brightline. The train, built by #Siemens Mobility, includes two #Charger diesels, top’n’tail, and ten #Venture cars. Max speed is 125 mph (200 kph) on a newbuilt section, and a bit less on existing #FEC Florida East Coast tracks, where we meet some freight trains.

Today I’m a first-timer, on #Brightline, Florida 🇺🇸, travelling from #Orlando #MCO Airport down to #Miami, FL. My booking was a last-minute one (I hadn’t foreseen to be in Orlando at all) and I opted for “Premium”, their 1st. They immediately won my heart: they’ve got Espresso Coffee in their Lounge.

Heute gibt es wieder größeren Lesestoff als Missing Link von mir bei Heise Online. Ich gehe der Frage nach, wann gibt es in den USA echten Hochgeschwindigkeitsverkehr Verkehr. Das größte Potenzial sehe ich bei der Brightline West zwischen LA und Las Vegas. Der Rest sieht schlecht aus.

#Brightline , the only privately run inter-city rail route in the United States that keeps getting handouts from government is in bad financial position.
They mainly offer service in Florida right now but are planning extension in California/Nevada
Turns out private rail might be hard to make money from, what a surprise.

A quotation from Hannah Arendt
In their moral justification, the argument of the lesser evil has played a prominent role. If you are confronted with two evils, thus the argument runs, it is your duty to opt for the lesser one, whereas it is irresponsible to refuse to choose altogether. […] Politically, the weakness of the argument has always been that those who choose the lesser evil forget very quickly that they chose evil.
Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) German-American philosopher, political theorist

If #brightline can deliver as promised: LA(ish) to Las Vegas in 2 hours... You'll see high speed rail projects 'pick up steam' across the nation. We badly need it here in America. 🔗 www.vvdailypress.com/story/news/2...

A quotation from Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Categorizing is necessary for humans, but it becomes pathological when the category is seen as definitive, preventing people from considering the fuzziness of boundaries, let alone revising their categories.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb (b. 1960) Lebanese-American essayist, statistician, risk analyst, aphorist
The Black Swan, Part 1, ch. 1 “The Apprenticeship of an Empirical Skeptic” (2007)Sourcing, notes: wist.info/taleb-nassim-nichola…

A quotation from Teddy Roosevelt
It is not possible to lay down an inflexible rule as to when compromise is right and when wrong; when it is a sign of the highest statesmanship to temporize, and when it is merely a proof of weakness. Now and then one can stand uncompromisingly for a naked principle and force people up to it. This is always the attractive course; but in certain great crises it may be a very wrong course. Compromise, in the proper sense, merely means agreement; in the proper sense opportunism should merely mean doing the best possible with actual conditions as they exist.
A compromise which results in a half-step toward evil is all wrong, just as the opportunist who saves himself for the moment by adopting a policy which is fraught with future disaster is all wrong; but no less wrong is the attitude of those who will not come to an agreement through which, or will not follow the course by which, it is alone possible to accomplish practical results for good.Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901-1909)
Essay (1900-06), “Latitude and Longitude Among Reformers,” The Century Magazine, Vol. 60, No. 2Sourcing, notes: wist.info/roosevelt-theodore/1…

The state of high-speed rail in the U.S., as told by the New York Times.
#Texas #Cascadia #Brightline #California
The reality: the only true HSR is the Acela, which tops out at 150 mph. That's just barely high-speed by international standards.
