If we tried it here in the US, the gvt would award it to Amtrack. Can you imagine that group attempting to manage these trains!

Claudia and I rode the Euro-Star about 10 yrs ago. In England it was slow yet very smooth. Once in France they turned on the power and we were got up to 187MPH. Very slow compared to this train but still you cound not focus on anything closer than about a 1/2 mile.

Almost makes me want to go back for a little train ride.
