What percentage of cities in Europe have TGV lines?
1 comments

TGV is France’s intercity high-speed rail system, so not many.

But, just about every major and secondary city in the EU has high speed rail service. As you move into central and Eastern Europe, the speeds drop quite a bit, but are still faster than anything Amtrak offers (except the short section of Acela line that can actually go fast).
