while we’re at it can China also export some of their amazing fucking train infrastructure.
Spain ? France ?.donn’t they have fast trains ?
Laughs in German rotten railways, that use the same ancient track for customs, regional passenger and fast intercity transportation.
Cries in Canadian as he looks up to German rail aspirationally.
Yea, but at least it’s there and still kinda working. Half the shit might be late, but you’re still getting there. Which is nice.
Poor bastard is with us in Canada.
The construction cost per km of hsr is not much higher in Europe. Especially Spain seems to be even cheaper then China.
Oh they’re exporting it, to countries that want it, for example via BnR. But as others have said, there’s great train infra from the EU and we have contracts with some firms to build HSR between Toronto and Montreal. But this HSR comes up every time there’s an election so I’m skeptical this is gonna go anywhere. But it’s not for the lack of good, well priced infrastructure. 😄
China has factories all over Asia, including Thaliand. I don’t understand why this is newsworthy.
I think it’s because the EU tariffed EVs made in China and now the EVs are coming from Thailand. 😄
Better than ICE, but I’d still rather see a greater push towards other means of transportation instead of just cars in our cities
Trains are urban, cars EV are rural.
