You can get on an airplane in Newark, NJ and reach Hong Kong in 15 - TopicsExpress



          

You can get on an airplane in Newark, NJ and reach Hong Kong in 15 hours. You can travel from Shanghai to Beijing in 2.5 hours. The overnight train we used to take from Guangzhou to Wuhan is much faster than that -- 2 hours. But here its no longer a slow boat to China but a slow boat anywhere. Critics of fast trains there is no ridership. They are right -- there are no riders because these trains dont exist. The train from NYC to Cleveland yesterday took exactly 12 hours. In China, this would have taken two hours. There is no excuse for this. The rest of the world -- Germany, France, Japan and China -- are leaving us in their dust. I thought we were better than that.
