500 miles in 3 hours by train - not in Oz

[jshugg@westpac.com.au (James Shugg)]

Buried away in today's Telegraph (not the Sydney one) is this little
piece about building the fast line to the south of France. The
patronage numbers they quote help explain why projects like this are
viable in Europe but maybe not in Australia.

Sorry if the address has wrapped, you may need to cut and paste it.
There's a nice graphic that's worth looking at too.
