Always funny to look these routes up. 500km, six hour drive in a car or two hour trip in a Shinkansen. In the west, this would be the other way around.

Hopefully they find more use for this once it gets going to get it beyond one trip a day. It would be interesting if they reach enough demand to run it around the clock.

In the west, this would be the other way around.

France, Italy and Spain are upset not to be called Western countries. Even if Spanish station security checks try their best to make it slower.

I just took a poll and Canada has agreed to accept France, Italy, and Spain in exchange for the current neighbours to the south. Please let me know when to expect delivery, hopefully station security takes an early lunch.
