WHOOSH!

French set new rail speed record.

Meanwhile, the speed of Amtrak trains is reported to be asymptotically approaching zero, as dawdling empty freight trains take precedence over passenger trains in defiance of the railroad's contractual obligations.

Gee. I wonder why so few people take Amtrak!

Perhaps the US is no longer a technology leader after all.
