More direct highspeed train travel in Europe
by Sebastian(About to be) stuck in an airport?
We need more highspeed nonstop train connecting major cities now! This is my personal opinion and wish of many of us here at 4Sing. We are committed to lower our CO2 footprint – which is largely caused by travel. Hence, in the last months we all happily shifted more often – even as a default choice – to train travel. But honestly longer distances remain a challenge. I had the great opportunity of taking a direct (nearly) nonstop TGV by SNCF from Paris to Barcelona. This travel went by fast in only about 6hours and was a super comfortable direct city-center to city-center journey.
Therefore, I wish for more direct – less stops(!) – connections between major cities. These can really cut air travel emissions and provide great, fast and reliable mobillity. The announcement on a Berlin-Paris train makes me very optimistic about the near future!
