This poster tried to discredit China but got a ton of insults from viewers. He fully deserve all of it

I’ve taken the high speed rail there and it’s quite comfortable aside from the giant train stations full of people. I try to avoid 2nd class and go first or business so I don’t have to deal with others. It’s worth it.

Los Angeles Airport just spent $3bn for a train to connect their terminals to a parking garage. So $900b to cover the whole country in high speed rail is not suck a bad deal.

The problem is that Amtrak does not own tracks, and cannot improve them. Current Amtrak trains can run at an average of 110 mph, but a lot of the tracks have a maximum speed of 20 mph or less.

There are vast reserves of natural hydrogen gas deep underground all over the world it just needs someone to convince the oil companies to use their expertise to drill for this untapped resource !

If Amtrak was owned by a private company, you would see a totally different rail line company. Get the Federal government out of this and this would be so different.

Japan Railways East (or JR East) is testing HYBARI, which is a Hydrogen-powered train developed by Toyota and Hitachi. We have rail-lines that aren't electrified and are currently using diesel-powered trains. JR has plans to slowly replace them with Hydrogen-powered trains in the future.

The freight railroads are supposed to give Amtrak trains priority, not the other way around. Why doesn’t Amtrak raise hell with congress insisting their passenger trains be given priority which is what the original agreement stipulated?

Their own tracks even without high speed rail would be a massive upgrade.

I have not heard any hydrogen combustion train. It is fuel cell. It is electrochemical process. This vidoe is absolutely misinformation.

You should really mention green hydrogen production! A recent review determined it was cheaper in the long run too. I personally think we all need to promote the positives if we want to reverse climate change as green hydrogen has real potential as a future green power source for railways.

Its not being paid for with tax payer dollars. You did a "sky is falling " hit piece.

Whether it is burning water to produce hydrogen or burning diesel, both are emitting a lot of CO2. So what's the advantage?

overrated bullshit in every aspect, except france and italy, in rest of europe, your own car, tansit buses or planes > any train, cheaper, faster, and more comfortable.

There is no long A in flammable.

Hydrogen trains are the goat 🐐🐐🗿

You are wrong.

Expanded them other places will be good thing

It seems to me that a plan avoiding purchase of lines or right-of-ways guarantees that Amtrak will remain at the mercy of freight train operations.

Oh please... The Chinese steal any technology the west gives them.

We will continually mock China but its huge construction and fast growing economy is something the wes can only look at longingly.

2:27 "...some of which are in pretty terrible States..." Yeah, like New Jersey.

"The NEC has some of the biggest line items..." followed by a wonderful picture of the California coast.

Maybe a few more doors falling off airplanes midflight will convince people it would be nice to have an alternative. Sadly, Union Pacific and others won't ever try to earn any revenue where Brightline does. I would think they'd be trying to replace lost coal loadings but that would be way to progressive. Yup, I'll be dead before I can take a train anywhere in the US.

Obvious pro battery guy spreading misinformation about hydrogen. Must be a big fan of Elon Musk. They hate hydrogen more than oil

The CCP seems to have spent too much on infrastructure and now seem to be drowning in debt. All investments are a trade off - perhaps if they had spent half what they have, it might have worked. But $900 billion debt is too much, they're going to struggle not to bankrupt the whole country

"Hi Speed Rail"... FOURTY mph imstead ofthe normal 25 mph?😂

Loaded with misinformation

this sukked

As a train fan, Amtrak is deteriorating. I’ve been riding Amtrak for years and the quality is not as good as it used to be. We need to start funding Amtrak, as it is way to reduce carbon emissions to train travel as well.

AMTK in LI ? This makes no sense. LIRR has the commuter service established so why spend the $ to go there? Maybe an extension from NY Penn to Jamaica to alleviate the congestion in the Midtown transfer but that's as far as it should go.

The U.S. does not have the population density to make train travel practical. All else is just a dream.

Where did you go??????

I debt to whom. China did not borrow money from the U.S

Typical American logic: calling someone a disaster when you don’t have one🤣

One of the most biased video on this topic. It's absolutely disgusting to hear this while watching such a great achivement in public transportation. Foolish propaganda. What's the amount of US debt? Has US got a one mile of high speed rail.

Restore Dining Car service on all overnight trains East of the Mississippi and hire real Chefs and Cooks to prepare real meals for the passengers who are paying good money to ride on Amtrak's cattle cars.

Communist Chinese should be banned entering civilised nations. China are just another north Korea.

The stupid arguments raised in this video is exactly why America doesn't and will never have a HSR network. Nuff said, keep doing things your way and leave China to do it their way. Maybe one day when you can visit the place and see common people being able to move around quickly, efficiently and affordably, maybe then you'll get it.

Maybe you should actually use the system in person when you make a video of something, rather than looking it up on Google.

You don’t know how the speedy transportation modernizes the economy of China. Transport faster and make business more efficient and profitable. With more and more experiences of manufacturing and operating the system they make things cheaper. The larger system also makes mass production cheaper. In overall the benefits is way more greater than not having a high speed rail system. They are not that stupid.

diesel is almost non-flamable.

You want to know I thought the other major that are also good is to electrified any line that Amtrak own like Springfield Corridor, DC to Richmond, also Fully Pennsylvanianian electrification, 1st segment of Empire Service and then between Scranton and NYC id this service is finally created. Once that happened, theirs is a possibility that Amtraj could electrified other lines even if they *don't own the track, *not that it still Class 1 RR, if Amtrak and state/ local groups get the right odf way from Class 1 RR.

The NEC logo you used is the logo of a Japanese tech firm lol not the northeast corridor.

Hydel power is the only pure eco friendly energy. As such, the already existing hydel power plants are to be increased its output by whatsoever innovations to be adopted viz, circulation of the momentum water, increase in the number of electricity generators, increase in the capacity of the hydel power dams by cascading walls, manufacturing of large huge PERPETUAL ENERGY IDEAS that will produce pure energy. Energy from non.conventional methods too are vividly cost effective! By adopting electric generators to whatsoever Speed transportation upon railways, highways and automobiles and building electricity grids for tapping & distribution of power from various such sources will certainly make success, unique and different!

the one who mention the title of this video know nothing about social and economics it show that you are primary school student.

On CZcams, at least half of the videos about China's high-speed rail are about how to lose money. These people will always focus on whether it is profitable as the main reference point. They will never pay attention to how much the opening of these high-speed rail lines will improve the local people, the local government, and the entire country's economy. The government cannot invest in all public facilities in pursuit of profits, otherwise China will be the next United States.

European rail will always be vastly superior to American rail and will forever be so.

I think we need to improve the ways that we make hydrogen and also find ways to store it easily so it won't be risky for explosions because it's super flammable. I hope the ways of producing hydrogen will be greener and drive down the price so it can be adopted easily and be integrated into our existing infrastructure.

your argument about tickets is laughable!😅 do you know they don't need tickets anymore. facial recognition can get passengers into train now
