It’s worth remembering that the first Shinkansen in Japan faced very similar opposition. Few wanted it, and very few thought it would have a significant positive impact.

Hang on to this UK. The opposition against Shinkansen in Japan was even bigger. Now it is not only bringing in more money, it is also helping revitalising rural regions (which is a BIG problem). Right now they are making Maglev trains from Tokyo to Nagoya as the next step.

now is the time to look for a financial advisor to help me understand what Government Bond is

the biggest failure of HS2 imo is starting it in London and working north, rather than starting in the north and working south. it would have had a lot higher approval rating if it promised to better connect the north first

The high speed train between my city, Barcelona and the capital, Madrid has singlehandedly killed the air routes between thia cities. High speed rail is a marvel.

Your graphics are becoming so much more sophisticated as is your reporting, and very much appreciated. One of the most easily accessible channels for the discussion of highly complex, high value global projects. Thank you.

Felt like a good day to revisit this…

Well done on a well produced piece of content. The quality of your work, like the HS2 budget, is ever-increasing!

Wow, this was absolutely fantastic. Genuine journalism, with an extremely high production value and a real effort to show all sides of the issue. This channel keeps getting better and better and I'm thankful to be along for the ride.

As an Irish person, I'm praying this pays off. We need the inspiration here and given our habit of copying stuff, I want this to be one

Thanks for pointing out the existing rails are full. One tip though: Mixed stopping patterns currently, extremely restrict capacity further. If you stop putting express trains on the old tracks, you don’t just increase local trains by the same amount — you can double or triple it! The gaps between trains are CRAZY when you have slow trains in front of fast trains.

One thing to keep in mind is the Shinkansen line. It went absurdly over budget and suffered from years of delay, but no one remembers that now, now everyone only remembers that Shinkansen helped pave the way for Japan to become one of the most prosperous countries in the world

Wow, this video was incredible on so many levels. Insanely detailed, giving tons of insight into a super interesting project; the editing is incredible and the info graphics are superb. Fantastic job B1M team, this was just an amazing video!

An extremely well-made documentary. The narrator was talking to the chief executive of HS2 whilst standing behind the building I live in, overlooking the reconstruction of Euston station. I am completely against HS2 and not because I don't like big infrastructure projects but because those in charge were duplicitous and dishonest. Before the project got started in 2012, our neighborhood committee met with HS2 and asked them for plans. They had none and were unwilling to share anything before the parliamentary vote on the project. One of my neighbors, part of this group, was Boris Johnson’s father. When he saw what a mess the project was going be, he promptly sold his house and moved away. One thing that was mentioned in this documentary was that parliament weren't given all the facts before voting on the project. Because if they were, they wouldn't have voted for it. Now we are in a position of having no choice and those that are affected by the project will be so for more than double the years that were planned for construction. I will probably be dead by the time it's completed. HS2 is a study in how not to bring a major project to a country. Time will outpace the benefits of HS2 and in the end, rather than having a well-thought-through projects that benefits all, we will have a very high-priced one, spun to look like it's really great when actually the opposite is true.

The big issue in the North (where I live) is that it is a chore to get anywhere. The distance btw Leeds and Manchester is no longer than the Piccadilly line. TPE and Northern are disasters in terms of reliability. The real benefit would be going E - to - W rather than thinking that life begins and ends in London.

The existing rail networks are incredibly and sometimes prohibitively expensive compared to much of the rest of Europe. The UK government have a a habit of using taxpayer money to build infrastructure, then selling to private investors who use it to extort the population.

This video was so damn good that I almost forgot I was watching on YouTube. This is at the same level of quality as a BBC or Discovery Channel documentary. Your narration is on the same level as Sir David Attenborough. Keep up the amazing content production, can't wait for the next one bruv!
As for high-speed rail, south of the DMZ has a wonderful system and we hope for that system to expand once we reunify

I'm really excited by HS2. I know it has its problems, and I understand concerns about the cost (although I think if we had more consistent planning we'd have less of the stop/start so less cost risk). But I wanted to say your graphics in this are just lovely - well done!

I currently work on hs2 as a sub contractor, and it’s shocking the amount of money being wasted

As someone who rides the Shinkansen weekly between Sendai and Tokyo, it makes two cities almost 400km apart feel like they're practically next door. The journey time is about 1 hour 20 mins (5-6 hours by car) and the smooth ride spent gliding across the countryside is an absolute joy. I never particularly enjoyed riding trains until I ended up in Japan. The Shinkansen were seen as a monumental waste of money before they were operational and then they quickly became the pride of the nation. Superb video though - this is the first time I've seen the pros and cons of HS2 explained clearly!
