The French, they are, a funny race.
The cart before the horse they put.
They fight with their feet and they.....


They spent billions on a new generation of rail passenger trains!

Fast!

Efficient!

Big and comfortable!

So big they won't fit into French railroad stations.....

Typical of engineers. Don't know how many times I have seen engineers design a large machine, and fail to notice that there were other machinery that made it impossible to install the new machine.

Ah well, maybe they will get some shiny new stations out of the deal.
 
Maybe someone can send one of these to France:

French is not a race; it's an ethnicity.
 
Trains don't fit the rail system?
The socialist Left is running France...would you have expected anything else?
