  1. 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 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 github.com/anisotropi4/magpie/. This INE dataset includes a London Overground layer as visualized here, as I couldn't find this anywhere else.

  6. Frecciarossa starts trials for new links to Munich from Milan and Rome.

    Trial runs of Frecciarossa trains in Germany and Austria are paving the way for high-speed links between Rome, Milan and Munich.

    The first services are planned for summer 2027.

  11. 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.

  12. 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.

  13. 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 😉.

  14. My latest video, ‘Shinkansen 88 – Back to the Future’ has just posted to YouTube.

    Please let me know what you think, it’s more personal and I’d love to hear your thoughts –

  15. 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

  17. 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 github.com/anisotropi4/magpie/.

    This identifies railway features, line speed and electrification scheme based on metadata.

    The associated source code and repository is here: https://

    Edit: to add links to GeoPKG files.

  18. 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

    3️⃣ Readers! You make the whole ecosystem real.

    Rail: A High Speed Adventure is now open for paperback presale worldwide. 🔗 bit.ly/3ThRP6t

    About Rail:
    Drawn into a globe‑spanning infrastructure proposal with uncertain motives, a designer confronts ecological ethics, corporate ambition, and the meaning of home as her past and future converge.

    Words from Global architect Raya Ani:
    "Building on The Erenwine Agenda, this work expands the conversation between architecture, environment, and responsibility — moving from personal conflict into global systems and their consequences."

    Ebooks are available now, worldwide.

  20. And for the #TrainOkatu on my feed - the very last hurdle for starting Japan’s maglev line has just been granted.

    Construction for JR Central’s USD 68bn Tokyo Shinagawa to Nagoya Maglev is now a go, but won’t be complete until late 2030’s: youtu.be/iuYXIxSJ2Eo

  21. #ForestCity in #IskandarPuteri, #Johor might be preparing to reserve land to create space for the infrastructure required for the #WestLine of the #LightRailTransit system & #KualaLumpur-Singapore #HighSpeedRail (#HSR)

    Several transportation-related infrastructure projects are being developed in the surrounding areas in attempt to improve accessibility to and from Forest City

    #LRT West Line & HSR are two of the projects with plans for stations in Forest City

  22. @CarlMuckenhoupt Freedom and power to me describe different elements of goal-attainment.

    Power refers to the active and instrumental element. That is, power is the specific capacity to initiate change.

    Freedom refers to constraints on power, a sort of negative space. Freedom is the ability to act without inhibition, but it isn't the action itself.

    So ... closely related, yes. Negative spaces, yes. Synonyms: no, though clearly closely related.
