bob_lemon, in China's new high-speed train just set a new record as the world’s fastest — and it could travel faster than an airplane

On a recent test run, the train sprinted to record-breaking speeds of 281 miles per hour, making it the fastest train in the world.

That’s not even close to the current record, which is 375 mph: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_speed_record

Once completed, engineers hope the maglev will reach 621 mph

Yeah, that’s a big “if” right there.

I’m all for high speed rail and I hope they succeed, but this article is terrible.

cron, in 4chan gets it

After widening was completed in 2008, a portion of the highway west of Houston is now also believed to be the widest in the world, at 26 lanes when including feeders. - (Wikipedia)

WTF

homoludens, in There's 3000 cars on fire in the North Sea

The ship is expected to keep burning for weeks.

Actually, it might also sink and release up to 2,000 tons of heavy fuel oil (plus molten plastic, metals etc.) to the Wadden Sea which is on the UNESCO World Heritage List as an important biosphere reserve.

Yerbouti, in I laugh at the Ford every time I see it. Today i got at chance to park next to it and the the size difference is comically large.

The F150 was the most sold car in the US last year. I’ve never seen so much of those in Montreal CA in over 20 years. We.are.doomed.

I can't take cars like this seriously, I just assume whoever drives them is a total piece of shit

queermunist, in When your city implements confusing cycling infrastructure

My favorite is when they put the bike lane in the middle of the street between the right and left vehicle traffic lanes. I feel so safe with murder machines on both sides of me!
