Damn, I wish there were trains like that all round the U.S, would make it much cheaper, easier and efficient. Instead of taking a 4 hour drive and wasting gas, it could take one hour instead.

However, I don`t think the ride is very efficent as it still use wheels and electricity..

Using magnet would make it much better

That the TGV if it is I been on that. Fucking freaky at first, but becomes pretty trippy after a little while.

Apparently as a driver for the thing you have to sign a contract that has something to do with that you will attend counseling or you are entitled to it, because when people jump in front of those trains, well yeah you get the picture..

I wonder how many km it takes to come to a complete stop from that speed.
AND I wonder how far ahead they can see, seems like it would only be a couple of seconds

The leukemia train surfer never died...
"An internet video claimed that he died a year later from an incurable form of leukemia, but later "the trainrider" exposed in an interview of Sat1 Akte 08 this video was made by a fan and the story was a hoax." (wikipedia, I can`t find the interview where he talks about it though.) If you`ve seen the video, the (fake)leukemia guy comes off as a dumbass. The reporter asks him if he worries about what happens to his kids if he dies, and I think he replies something like, if it happens, it happens, I can`t worry about my kids if I want to trainsurf.

However Martin Harris, a Danish man fergot about a bride while trainsurfing and died.

"...the train passes under two viaducts. Martin Harris was killed at the second (northern) viaduct where the free height is only 74 cm. It has been speculated he may have been aware of the first viaduct but forgot there was a second one."

300 m/h isn`t fast. I could do that on a bike. Did you mean mi for miles or km for kilometers...? Probably miles thats mi not m, m is for meters (the metric system, what smart people use).

Someone explain to me why france has this train, while Canada, which is like 13 time larger than france, has shit all.

True, the rockies might get in the way, but Im sure some good engineering could get around that.

its not just the train, its the tracks too.
Here in the UK, we`re having to relay track from the channel to london for a new high speed train link, if it was just trains it`d be easy, but tracks are rated for max speed.
U need better tracks for higher speed.
