  • “As far as I can tell Kolari to Lagos, Portugal, is the longest journey you can take on multiple trains within the EU,”

    5000km in a week probably. Does Portugal even have high-speed rail? And if it did, I’d be surprised if they had one in Lagos.

    Meanwhile, Ranne has backed a long-range plan to build a parallel European-gauge track alongside the existing Finnish tracks from Haparanda to Kemi and perhaps eventually Oulu.

    That’s great! Eventually getting rid of Russian gauge will be good for Finland. If they are ever successfully invaded, it won’t be easy to transport everything by rail through the country.
