Larger population density, shorter distances, just like the US East coast. Trains work. They don't in the US because everywhere off the coasts are more sparsely populated with larger distances. I truly hate to see any abandoned aircraft. They are amazing things, built by hand from the highest technology to ever exist. They deserve better than to be abandoned to the elements. Europe is actually a bit larger than the USA. Europe has 10.18 million square kilometres, USA has 9.8 million square kilometres. Clarence Quote

Clarence If you don’t include Alaska it’s more like 8.Likewise if you remove Norway, Finland, Sweden, and Ukraine it would be much less.Tom Quote

The one we grew up with and the one after the fall of the Berlin Wall. They are very different sizes. I'm still getting used to the idea of Ukraine being part of Europe. Quote

I may be wrong, but I don't believe they have a lot of 200 mph trains going to the rural areas of Russia. Edited February 11, 2019 by skydvrboy Quote
