Sitting in the center of Europe, sharing borders with nine other nations, Germany will play a major role in any pan-European network. The German government's"TEE2.0" proposal to reboot the oldis an extension of its $88 billion"Deutschland Takt" program, announced in 2019, which aims to provide fast and frequent inter-city rail services between all German towns and cities over a certain size by 2030.
A good example is Munich in southern Germany to Milan in northern Italy. These industrial powerhouses are less than 500 kilometers apart, closer to each other than to their respective national capitals, but separated by the Alps. And according to Alberto Mazzola of the Community of European Railways, carbon emissions trading could be a key tool in funding the massive investment required to complete a Europe-wide high-speed rail network.
Just as important as civil engineering and sleek new trains, technologies such as digital signaling, automatic train operation, big data and improved ticketing will be critical to improving rail travel and attracting millions of new passengers. Organizations such as ALLRAIL are pushing for similar reforms elsewhere in the EU, but progress is frustratingly slow.
When main roads reached capacity after World War II, countries built highways and autobahns. High-speed lines are the railway's equivalent of motorways, taking the fastest long-distance traffic away and creating capacity on existing lines.
They are destroying your first class economy and trying to convince you that riding with the livestock is better. The good news, soon they'll outlaw the cows, pigs and chickens so you can be the livestock. Gotta love Globalism by way of Communism.
That would be fantastic
Huge market for that in the states, not! Electric planes will come decades earlier and at a significantly lower cost.
Who can afford that?

Italy Faces Worst Drought in Decades as Europe Feels the HeatThe drought and unseasonably high temperatures over the past several months threatens to ruin many of the country’s crops, as rising average temperatures increase the frequency of extreme weather events across Europe. The water missing from Italy can be found in here Australia. Insane rainfall in July, right after a long rainy summer. We had a similar issue in Connecticut a few years ago.

EU forces Amazon to make it easier to cancel Prime subscriptions in EuropeFollowing complaints from European consumer groups. Easier? It couldn't be easier.
