Did you already get hit by a speedy boi or only just some near misses?

So I was a bit wrong, they didn't come to the conclusion that full electrification was cheaper, but that battery trains with catenary islands are cheaper to operate than hydrogen. If they really added everything to the calculation I can't really say, but I hope so.

I don't think the font size matters too much in this, it's just the printing the whole source code, including a lot of not directly relevant things, and sending all of that over in a few boxes instead of sharing the project files with them that is very malicious.

I would have loved if we had pumped hydro storage instead of only batteries. And I hope that there will be some dirt roads that don't carry electricity automatically.

No I don't, sorry

I think in Germany they did some tests with hydrogen trains and came to the conclusion that catenary electrification is cheaper in the long run and also more efficient, so greener.

You sure that he didn't land on the other hub?

I'm usually running with friends, so you running becomes secondary, with sometimes doing a bit of a focus for it for a few minutes for an interval or special foot training. I struggled a long time with running for myself, but I just need to set myself a route goal and then keep my pace in view on my watch, otherwise I go way to fast for longer distances.

I think water-wise are LA and especially Phoenix much worse than Vegas.

From Zurich yeah, but from the east of Zurich the deveation gets much longer. And there is a highway on both the north and the south of the Axenstrasse, so this tunnel makes sense and as you see is needed to use this road as a local connector.

And I don't think this would lead to that many more cars on the road, because the limiting factor will still be the Gotthard.

This road is definitely a problem, it is the only stretch of the main north/south highway that isn't actually a highway, once they build that tunnel it can finally serve the purpose of a local alternative for vehicles that can't go on the highway (bikes and tractors and other slow stuff).

The only way you could improve the current situation is by offering free bike-tickets on the trains running between the two closest stations instead of this weird shuttle.

The road is too narrow and curvy for cars to overtake cyclists without too much danger.
