China has been using maglev technology for almost 2 decades on very limited scale. Maglev train could go from Shanghai to #Beijing in 2.5 hours, versus 5.5 hours by high-speed rail. Self-developed by China and manufactured in coastal city of #Qingdao. @CRRC_global new model.
Cutting-edge #scientific and technological achievement in field of #railway transit in world. Train uses electromagnets to suspend itself above rails, and because there's no friction from contact with rail lines, train can run quietly and smoothly. Unveiled in glittery ceremony.

Die Strecke Amsterdam-Hamburg-Berlin-Prag wäre ein überzeugender Beitrag zur Reduizierung inner-europäischer Flüge gewesen. Die Planung des Teilstücks Hamburg-Berlin war sogar schon abgeschlossen.

Man darf aber nicht nur den vermeintlichen Umweltschützern Vorwürfe machen: Natürlich waren @Die_Gruenen, @bund_net und andere die Totengräber einer Technologie die wir heute dringend bräuchten. Faktisch haben sie damals #Lobbyarbeit für das Flugzeug betrieben.
