New video from prolific High Speed Rail Youtuber "Lucid Stew" about Cascadia High Speed rail, which sketches out the details of a new hypothetical route between Eugene and Vancouver, BC. What do you think of this route?
Brightline West bekommt de facto einen ICE in die USA. Velaro-Plattform als AP220 (American Pioneer). Sieht so aus, als würde Brightline West die California High Speed Rail überholen (trotz der stark eingekürzten Strecke).
Ugh! I want Robin because she'll make PF easier... And Topaz might be a good Fire DPS... And I've wanted Fu Xuan as a mega-support for forever... And Boothill's character design looks hilariously hyper-American...
On Monday, March 11, U.S. Representatives Seth Moulton (D-MA) and Suzan DelBene (D-WA) introduced the American High-Speed Rail Act of 2024. This bill would provide $205 billion over five years for the planning and construction of a national high-speed rail network.

The evaluation of the seven Concept Proposals that have been received from firms/consortiums interested in the #KualaLumpur - Singapore #HighSpeedRail (#HSR) project is expected to take 2 months to complete
#MyHSRCorp is still evaluating Concept Proposals that have been received
The results of the evaluation will be taken up for government approval to shortlist the consortia for the next process, the Request for Proposal (RFP)
Just ran across your site, and was wondering if you were aware of the #CascadiaRail project? This multinational "high speed #rail" #HSR has been being worked on by the governments of #Oregon, #Washington, and #BritishColumbia for a line from #Portland to #Seatte to #Vancouver, with a target transit time of ~1 hour for each half. That would be speeds in the 110-125 kph, not truly HSR, but an incremental improvement. Key feature: right-of-way already secured.
I can't quibble with the content (it all holds water) and it's a good promotional summary of the topic.
The whole sponsored thing is a bit "ick", but whatever, newspapers aren't what they once were! And it's a nice counter to the regressive, anti-HSR editorials recently published in the Seattle Times.
Several transportation-related infrastructure projects are being developed in the surrounding areas in attempt to improve accessibility to and from Forest City
#LRT West Line & HSR are two of the projects with plans for stations in Forest City
The most important rail project that no one seems to know about in Southern California is Link US, which will create run-through tracks, meaning Union Station will have run-through service rather than be a stub.
A route connecting #KualaLumpur and Bangkok will make it possible to link it to other regional #HSR lines to form larger networks that will reach Laos and China.
I love how the Trash Taste boys all got voice cameos in Star Rail, but as far as I can tell Connor's the only person who's character got to come back because he was leagues better than Joey and Garnt.
Their characters didn't even get names :puniko_giggle3:
What does it say about me that my two favourite Star Rail characters are the sweetest cinnamon roll in the galaxy, and the hypnotic, deep voiced mommy who manipulates everyone around her to her own ends? :senkohmm:
My two cents on the topic is that HSR from Melbourne to Sydney should implemented as a series of incremental upgrades, rather than a single megaproject.
It wasn't done as single megaproject. Instead, it was done in small segments. A bypass around a town. A section of road between two town upgraded to dual carriageway. Eventually, over 40 years, the whole road was upgraded.
We should be doing the same thing with the train line from Melbourne to Sydney.

Jingheng!! I love every flavor of Jing Yuan. Finally, Dan Heng goes home to him
Mihoyo has purchased the right for a newly cultivated rose variety. It will be exhibited at several cities in China, in collaboration with the Beijing Academy of Forestry and Landscape Architecture.
The name of this new rose variety is Argenti. In floral language, it will mean "May the spirit of beauty always accompany you".
