Today Codie Sanchez made my email. You choose your hard... so please don’t complain. I’ve been in both, and I’m still deciding what to do next. I take my time, with no rush.

Accidents aside because of lack of maintenance and incompetent managers and politicians, Spain has made great things in high-speed trains. Let’s go back in time to the good times. 1988 The country decided to build a high-speed railway between Madrid and Sevilla… or Seville. 470 kilometres. New infrastructure. New technology. A country with no previous high-speed rail experience, but willing to become a top guy. By April 1992, passengers were travelling at 250 km/h. About three and a half...
You know... I just came back from China. And I have to admit something. I was impressed. Not by the skyscrapers. Not by the technology. Not even by the infrastructure… or the great toll systems (yes, I’m a geek for them). Although, to be fair, a country that added almost 2,900 km of high-speed railway in a single year deserves some credit.
