C'est magnifique, mais ce n'est pas la guerre
Rantburg's Gorb reports on the French TGV (Train a Grande Vitesse) as it breaks the world rail speed record at 574.8 kilometres per hour (357.2 miles per hour) on a specially prepared track east of Paris.
Wow. Amazing engineering. But I wonder what its top forward speed is.
