For the most part, European cities ARE more closely spaced, especially within the borders of each individual country. Europe is still a collection of nations, not a unified state. Except for some of the former Soviet republics, HSR makes a lot of sense for inter-city travel between destinations in one country. A London-Glasgow HSR line makes sense for the same reasons a NYC-Washington DC line would make here: distance. |
