China Wants to Connect its High-Speed Rail to Europe (Largest Infrastructure Project in History)

"It might seem like a pipe dream if it weren’t for the fact that China is already about halfway through the construction of the largest high-speed rail (HSR) network in the world with the fastest trains in the world.

"With its internal projects getting closer to completion, China’s new goal is to continue on with a HSR revolution internationally in order to create two-day HSR trip times between Beijing and London (which itself might get some pretty fast trains soon)!

"But it is about much more than a rail connection or two to Europe."
