For those interested in such things, here is a set of scripts to extract and filter data associated with rail for the Islands of Northern Europe here https://github.com/anisotropi4/magpie. My thanks goes to @openstreetmap as this is based on their data.
The GeoPKG file for the INE rail dataset is here https://github.com/anisotropi4/magpie/releases/download/v2.2.1/ine-rail.gpkg. This INE dataset includes a London Overground layer as visualized here, as I couldn't find this anywhere else.

Spousey and I are going to #3DPrintopia this month! Even better, we're riding the #Acela to Philadelphia to get there! We booked business class tickets last night. I've never ridden the Acela, and I might be looking forward to the train ride more than the show.

We are often told that high-speed rail lines cannot be used by freight trains, because of the wear and tear from heavy carriages. That does not seem to apply to the Perpignan–Barcelona route, where passenger trains at 300 km/h share tracks with freight trains.

I'll allow Carney to take as many trips to Europe as he wants. He's good at crafting a message for the room he's in, so I expect to hear more encouraging "middle powers" talk.
Longshot: maybe he'll ride a TGV or two while he's there 😉.

RE: https://tomkahe.com/@GiftArticles/117162082714215164
lol, at least we Brits got as far as Birmingham.
It's all very pathetic though, we need more trains and fewer planes

Central Valley cities actively working against CA High Speed Rail, then citing delays and expense as a reason the project is unworkable. This is why big infrastructure projects are so difficult in America

For those interested in such things, here is a set of scripts to extract and filter data associated with rail from the full planet @openstreetmap dataset. The GeoPKG file for rail dataset is https://github.com/anisotropi4/magpie/releases/download/v2.1.1/planet-rail.gpkg.
This identifies railway features, line speed and electrification scheme based on metadata.
The associated source code and repository is here: https://

Italians may help Germany get its trains to run on time.
Non-Europeans relying on stereotypes are often bemused to find that nowadays Italy’s trains are tip-top while Germany’s are in chaos.
Opening up national markets has worked wonders for European railways

Will 2026 be the year Europe’s night trains finally take off?
A European night train renaissance has long been teased, but in reality, it has been slow to materialise.
New night trains are launching across Europe, but funding gaps and ageing infrastructure still threaten their revival.

Seven consortiums that have submitted #concept #proposals to develop the #KualaLumpur-Singapore #HighSpeedRail (#HSR) project will be in intense competition
Three of the seven consortiums, comprising a total of 31 companies, are believed to be led by #BerjayaGroup, #YTLGroup & #ChinaRailway respectively
In addition to #rollingstock manufacturers, the bidders have roped in local & foreign firms with experience in various fields

@pinhman @themayortv in any case, it’s time for a major #interprovincial grid tie, and while you do that, electrify freight #trains and build a #TransCanada #highspeedrail . Feed in #wind , #solar, and buffer with #hydro and #batteries

@GrahamDowns I love flying and I like driving, but maybe you have to experience working #PublicTransport to really appreciate how awesome it is and why property prices actually rise and do not fall 🙂
Because then also the lifestyle you describe is possible without cars and with you having to drive your kids everywhere every day.
That is actually on of the (few... 😀 ) things I am missing a lot here in #Johannesburg & #SouthAfrica in general.
When I am in #Germany, I am traveling a lot between '#Munich and #Hamburg currently (about 620km as the crow flies). I am practically always doing that by #IntercityExpress (ICE) trains, the German #HighspeedRail network. It is about 7h from door to door, approx an hour or two more than flying but a bit cheaper and much more convenient.
I buy one ticket which includes the #subway in Munich and Hamburg, I need to be at the train station only 5-10min before the train departs. I have #Wifi in the train and ample space to work, read, sleep. There is a dining car or in First Class (which is a bit more spacious) service at your seats.
Unlike when flying, I don't spend an hour waiting here, standing in the security queue, waiting an hour there, flying one hour etc.
If I miss a train, no problem, there are at least hourly connections between all major and medium sized cities (something like #RichardsBay or #Makhanda in South Africa), so I take the next one.

“Elon Musk admitted to his biographer that the reason the Hyperloop was announced—even tho he had no intention of pursuing it—was to try to disrupt the California high-speed rail project to get in the way of that actually succeeding.” — #ParisMarx #Gizmodo
