Eurostar sets new Brussels record
"Eurostar has set another record for train travel with its inaugural service between Brussels and the new London St Pancras terminal.
"It broke the two-hour barrier, travelling at speeds of more than 186mph through Kent into London.
"The 232-mile journey from Brussels Midi station to St Pancras took one hour, 43 minutes, shaving 20 minutes off the time it currently takes to Waterloo."
I'm jealous. Would love to see high-speed trains running down the median of every freeway in the western US.
Subsidized at gunpoint, with gas taxes. To encourage use.
