new French train will hit 224mph

The train is set to travel 1000km in 3 hours bringing the technology closer and closer to air travel. I feel quite strongly that short-haul flights that do not cross significant bodies of water should be banned and replaced with high speed rail links.


Addition:

I like this quote from M. Sarkozy and would like to point it at nu-labour:

"We need to entrench a simple message in people's minds: industry is not over, industry is essential for the economy of a rich nation as much as an emerging nation,"
