In my near future I see multiple one hour flights around the UK, France, Spain and Portugal.

This is because the rail service, while the track exists, is not fit for purpose.

Here’s what I would regard as a minimum viable standard to even start to be some sort of competitor for air travel: low season, if I can travel from Faro to London, including a sleeper berth, for 150 euros, and buy the ticket on Trainline dot com in 10 minutes.

It doesn’t even start to come close, and is never projected to.

@goatsarah Yeah. I went to Madrid last month. I went by train, because I feel sufficiently strongly that it's the right thing to do, but the difference in price between the train journey and flying was not funny.
