MODERATORS
Personally I don't really want even more transport localising at capital cities, I'd much prefer if the focus was something akin to airports (In terms of location choice) but for high speed trains
There are many high speed stations outside of the cities in Europe? Have you traveled to at least a couple of them? The experience sucks and the extra commuter train travel to the station makes the trip longer, especially when you want to a rural area on the other site of the city, then you first have to commute to central station of the city and take the regional train from there.
HST stations only outside of the city make trains less competitive to airplanes.
