The UK is in the process of spending £100billion of public debt to build a “high speed” train line to connect the northern cities to London. Except it’s been shortened in length to not connect those cities and will instead run only to Birmingham less than 200km away, keeps getting reduced in speed, and can probably be guaranteed not to run on time. So for me it seems like any county could make the trains run with infinite money, but in the country which invented the train we still can’t.
