the substance of what they are doing in practical terms in France and Germany, but moved my attention to the central passage of the article, which reads:
It 's a great new world, what the French and Germans are born on tracks of the old continent. The train, the legendary luxury transportation in the Belle Epoque of the Orient Express, now is the medium of the future. A world from which Italy and its controversies, its political struggles and its delays on the risk of being cut off Tav. Whilst it is ready to engage in Spain, whose national tax revenue and aid the EU has built a network in a few years Table we can only dream of: Madrid-Barcelona in 2 hours and 20 more high-speed Madrid-Seville and Barcelona in the south of the Mediterranean coast. Competitive with the plane, even where it has existed for decades puente plane, that is a flight every 10 minutes Madrid - Barcelona at affordable prices with the check-in flash and the train as possible to pay your ticket on board.
First, the fact that it is an extraordinary new world think it is quite questionable and subjective, an opinion due to several factors to consider. I tossed about 320 km. hour with the air conditioning m'arriva just right on the neck, I care almost nothing. Following
, Tarquini then writes a series of inaccuracies not do justice to the term information that a journalist should disclose, if you intend to do that job and talk about certain topics.
line Madrid - Barcelona not currently exist. Or rather, there is a line Madrid - Camp de Tarragona , more or less closely. As if to say there is a Rome-Turin, where the race ends, however, the train to Alexandria, it is not the same thing, is another province, right or wrong?! No, I'm not mistaken.
Camp de Tarragona is located in the province of Tarragona, and from this town must then take a regional train to arrive in Catalan capital, which is late one hour and 10 minutes.
And again. The line Madrid - Camp de Tarragona does his route in 2 hours and 20, as Tarquini returns after reading probably start some project work. The line Madrid - Camp de Tarragona late, at best 2 hours and 40 minutes (there are also times of 2 hours and 50 minutes). These 2 hours and 40 minutes per hour and we add the 10 before, and we get our beautiful four-hour trip (not counting the waiting time of coincidence, of course). All of this, the modest price of 87 € (70 € the first, 17 second train), one way.
This Tarquini we called it " competitive with the plane." A plane late 1 hour and 10 , there is something one every 15-30 minutes, and you can find tickets € 42 one way (137 euro a / r on the same day, the puente air) ... That is, a quarter of the time travel at half price. In the face of competitive .
While it is true that now are building a line from Camp de Tarragona will arrive in Barcelona ... But going on a casino. Because if
" Italy [...] his polemics, his political struggles and its delays " made them explode before it is put in motion all Ambaradan before it begins to pierce by fearful of the damage, the controversy in Barcelona are exploding now. When the work began. Because the diggers have started working downtown, and everything is collapsing. There are citizens who have been evacuated and thrown out of home as the work of the AV (TAV), exterior of this amazing new world , are they doing to him down the roof of the house. And now, with the diggers in the ass, in the process of home, are protesting and demonstrating and asking them to block all ( here, here , here and here ).
If nothing else we wised up and villagers, we have analyzed first, all the damage that could cause a shit. As always
movements no-tav offer, why not improve the existing lines?! They say in Italy, I suggest here in Spain.
Tarquini said that Spain is ready to engage in this blessed extraordinary new world (fails to mention that it is not so ready, because the end of the work that will lead to engaging with France were sent to 2012 given the numerous problems that have occurred), and later quotes the line between " Barcelona in the south of the Mediterranean coast . Again, this line does not exist. Or better said, that there is regional port of Barcelona at Camp de Tarragona, from which the supermostro to 320 km / h for Madrid, Madrid, and another change that leads to Seville or Malaga.
After that, however, t'arrangi.
Because if you are in Andalusia, and you're doing your backpacker ride along a linear route and circular logic, and you go down to Seville, Cadiz, Ronda and from there to go back and continue to train Granada until, well you can not. There is a railway line linking Ronda Granada. You have to take and go back to Cadiz, and from there take the train of this magnificent railway network ready to engage in this wonderful new world of the future.
Mr Tarquini, Europe of the future has already begun as she says to me (and many others, believe me) would be enough for Europe this worked a little better, applying intelligence and common sense in the decisions, not just the usual facade and economic interests from which politicians seem to be continually prey.
And if by doing 621 km. How far from Madrid to Barcelona takes me 5 hours (current) instead of the feared two and a half (at least 4 current) via train, but you can save millions of euro, will prevent damage to the environment, people, I I prefer it by far.
postscript: the fact that you can receive in this wonderful new world, in this beautiful Europe of the future, complete information, less partisan, fair and closer to those who are really the facts I know that is too ambitious a goal.
