the initiative does not go to far into details with this, but any acceleration of trans-european railway extensions is good in my book - you may want to read this
this is okay with the rules of this community, I hope? Still pretty new here, but I am not in any way connected to this initiative, I just stumbled upon it and liked it, and thought that others might be interested as well
@eggnog I’m boosting this from Friendica, so rest assured. Hope more people will see it.
I don’t think it will make it too soon. Have you checked trains in South-Eastern Europe (specially Romania)? DB or SNCF seem like premium services compared to us. Trains are poorly maintained, bathrooms are a hit-or-miss (usually miss), there’s no level boarding, you have to put an effort to get in the carriages - even for wheelchair accessible trains there are usually a couple of railway workers literally raising the chair through the dedicated door.
Not to mention trains here are low-speed trains - they run slower than they did in 1995.
