@TarkabarkaHolgy This is super cool! 😎
All tram networks (and train networks) should have something like this! 😊

🚨 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.

#Infrastructure in British #India:
"Natural drainage of Bengal was disturbed due to construction of a network of #railway 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: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2023/01/14/metro/workers-building-new-orange-red-line-cars-springfield-describe-toxic-error-prone-factory/

I passeggeri ferroviari hanno subito ritardi o interruzioni su più della metà di tutti i servizi ferroviari in partenza da 15 delle stazioni più trafficate della Gran Bretagna nell'ultimo anno, mostra l'analisi del Guardian, esponendo quello che è stato descritto come un sistema ferroviario "rotto" ...

Replace just 250km of track, get better trains, and you can almost halve the time of a Sydney to Melbourne rail journey down to less than 6hrs?
That’s a bargain. Let’s get it done.

@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.

Plan to transform #transport across north of #England unveiled | #UK news | The Guardian
I hope they concentrate on #railways and #electrification.
#railways #northernengland #infrastructure #railtransport #transport #england #uk #electrification
"The North East Line will undergo major enhancement and renewal works which will start in 2019.
...They added that upgrading work includes installing a new condition monitoring system to track train performance more closely, upgrading the trains’ air-conditioning, replacing interior fittings such as seats and flooring, as well as detailed inspections of all mechanical and electrical systems."
