🚨 ATTENTION US RAIL WORKERS 🚨

You should strike until safety regs are overhauled _and_ you get reasonable pay + vacation days.

If that crashes the economy... GOOD :surprise_angry:
That will get the point across.


Please for visibility

in British :
"Natural drainage of Bengal was disturbed due to construction of a network of embankments resulting in formation of poorly drained “compartments” in different areas of Bengal. This led to excessive silting, damaged crop production, increased chance of flooding and created stagnant water pockets that were apt for water-borne diseases like cholera and malaria."

I mean, wow. Just wow.

How on earth did Boston’s Mass. Bay Transit Authority let CRRC screw up so badly; let alone pick an inexperienced company to deliver a badly overdue rolling stock replacement.

This Boston Globe article this week on the project is genuinely horrifying: bostonglobe.com/2023/01/14/met

@johnquiggin According to a world bank analysis paper, high-speed rail is most suitable for distances of 150km to 800km (although may be somewhat feasible for slightly longer distances, up to about 1000km). For reference, Melbourne to Sydney is between 700km to 900km depending on how you calculate the distances. So strictly speaking from a distance perspective, this route is at the far end of the most suitable window.

Yes, this is a blog, though it does links to their analysis.
