How about Paris to Marseille (775km vs 615km for LA to SF) in 3 hours 15 min, Paris to Bordeaux (584km) to be 2 hours by 2017, or Brussels to Lyon (734km) in 3 hours 43 min?
- Turing_Machine 11y agoAccording to two different air miles calculators I tried, the distance from Paris to Marseille is only about 630 km, so I'm not sure where you're getting 775 (I used air miles for LAX-SFO too).
- simias 11y agoNot sure where he gets 775km either but the actual length of the railroad between Paris and Marseilles is around 750km: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGV_M%C3%A9diterran%C3%A9e https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGV_M%C3%A9diterran%C3%A9e Obviously you can't always go completely straight when you're building on the ground.
