Crashworthiness? <br />TGV doesn't have a single place where the rails cross a highway at grade. It doesn't need to be as strong as an American train which has to face untold numbers of grade-level crossings and idiot automobile and truck drivers far more interested in getting from here to there without "inconveniences" of trains stopping their holy forward progress. <br />American trains could be far lighter if it weren't for the !$E#!@!%$ grade-level crossings. In fact, Operation Lifesaver would have less or no reason to exist. <br />If we are to have real high-speed operation, the crossings have to go--first!
