☝️🤓 Um, actually, the 4-decade-old "Pacer" (pictured) was retired a few years ago.
It was replaced by the exciting new "Sprinter", merely 40 years old.
Wow! So futuristic!
So the 40 year old was replaced with a 40 year old
Prince Andrew would not be impressed.
I'm kinda surprised there hasn't been a retrofit of some kind to at least make an attempt at aerodynamics for it. I guess it would be minimal efficiency savings.
Well we've invested more into HSR than any of those countries combined. Well it's not quite finished Well it doesn't run the length of was intended quite a bit shorter Yes cancelled you say right

It's funny that the country that invented trains has worse trains than the US.
I wouldn't go that far.
What are you talking about, America is the worst at it by a mile
By a mile? How many miles of operational rail do we have? Now how many miles do you have? The US has approximately 140,000, mi. There is approximately 10,000 mi of rail across Great Britain and Northern Ireland........
As my British friend Tom used to say
Mate you fucking flunked your maths schooling didn't ya.
Nah mate that’s a massive exaggeration. US rail is absolutely centuries behind UK rail.
The little train that… awww, mum, effort, stop nagging me, can’t be bothered!
The little engine that didn't wanna.
German rail is not doing too hot these days either.
