Brilliant, I thoroughly enjoyed the video, it brings to life the real world issues with these train companys face! I had to have a small chuckle to myself, it spoke about a new high speed line with a top speed of 120mph..... In the uk the old high speed trains (the intercity 125 - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/InterCity_125) had a top speed of 125mph and were built in the mid 70's! The new HS2 (High Speed 2) that they are speaking of building, will have a top speed of 250mph. On another note, the HS2 line is planned within 3miles of my house, a lot of locals are up in arms about it (as their houses might be compulsory purchased) but I'm quite looking forward to it!
