I share Steam for evers "gut feeling" that the "electric railway" is taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
Whats wrong in a such a densely populated country with the internal combustion engine working at speeds of upto 125mph ?
Does the nation need 200mph electric railways and will they bring significant benefits for the capital outlay ?
Would a High speed diesel with tilting technology and cleaner fuel (perhaps bio-diesel) provide cleaner faster trains at a fraction of the cost ?
