Surprisingly great video. Lots of interesting stuff.

I am Czech. This video is funny and interesting but it’s criticising that line for something it was never meant to be. It is simply regular track like others but few sections have higher speed limit. That’s all. We are in process of building real high speed rail for 320 kmh, but that will take something like 10 years. In the meantime, some sections of regular tracks will be upgraded to 200kmh like the Budweis track too.

And that example isn’t even touching on how high-speed rail is in many other ways a bondogle that does more harm than good in most cases.
