Al-Boraq: The 320km/h Fastest Train In Africa
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 май 2024
- At 350km/h, China currently has the fastest operating train service on earth. Second place is a tie between the planet's other technology giants - Japan, Germany, France, and Morocco. Wait. Morocco? I went to Casablanca to find out more...

I bless the trains down in Africa.
Gonna take some time to drive to Casablanca still
She's coming in, 12:30 train
Tim's gonna take some time to do the things we never had (ooh, ooh)
There's nothing that a 320km/h train or more could do
and that tricky sentence about the 'serengetti'
fastest train in Africa is faster and better than the fastest train in America. well done Morocco.
Same in Britain. They introduced Pendolinos, but because they're not allowed to go fast enough the only thing they achieve is making people sick.
I'm Moroccan :)
No because the USA is not the best on trains France and Japan have the best trains THE USA has a problem with trains speeds even if it's so big 😶
@Andy Wilderness Well, America is one of the wealthiest and most developed countries in the world, and Morocco is a middle income developing country
You're right but America took the decision to improve air transport: smart investment cause it costs lower and go faster!

Morocco: We're going to build 360km of high speed rail, linking our three main cities for €2bln. We're not a rich country, so we planned it meticulously to minimise costs by using existing technology, and worked hard and frugally to deliver a difficult project through harsh terrain on a bare bones budget.
Britain: We're going to make a promo video and some draft reports for £2bln, discussing what our non-existent high speed train might look like if we could build it, which we may or may not be able to do, in the fullness of time. We are a rich country, but we pis*ed it all away on a non-existent bridge accross the Thames, non-existent ferries, a non-existent railways, and an actually existing cable car between two non-existent "attractions". Choo choo.
And actually 2 billion € is pretty cheap for that distance.
Here in Austria they are currently planning on upgrading the southern mainline from Vienna to Mödling (some 10km) to 4 tracks (and that only for up to 200kph) - for about the same price! Granted, this is in densely populated area with buildings right next to the existing 2-track line, but still: 2 billion for 360km of high speed rail is a bargain.
@@stephanweinberger In densely populated areas, legal costs go exponential. Not only the price of land is higher and there are more owners to contend with, the amount of services to deviate (water, electricity, roads, cables) go up as well. And in a first world country where citizens can count on the judicial system.. construction is inevitably delayed and costs inflated. Even in Morocco where contesting land expropriation for such a project is useless, legal problems delayed the construction for at least a year and cost 14% more for what I read.
@@AlMoxtar "in a first world country where citizens can count on the judicial system.. " -- Hahahahaha, oh man, that's a good one.
HS2 is like CAHSR at this point. We do many things in a stupid way in france but thanks god when it comes to HSR we've at least got a shred of sense.
At least our rail policies are consistent. Consistently bad.
Morocco is one of the best countries I’ve ever visited. Modernizing at a rapid pace.

“Most of the buildings are painted white”
Casablanca...bro you just blew my mind
bro
The question now is, what came first, the white buildings or the name?
@@ReddoFreddo The egg!

"... and if you've ever been to a place called "France" then you might get a weird feeling you've seen it somewhere before - or as we say in English: déjà vu." xD
Priceless. I am always delighted by the loving relationship between the Brits and the Frenchmen.
Brilliant humour 😂
When the word déjà vu comes from French and means litterallly the same thing
They got our french words, but unfortunatly we do not have their humor quality! Love english humor!
Except that most houses are not white and the name has nothing to do with the current city. Casablanca was destroyed in 1755, therefore the "houses that might have been white in the past" are no longer there.
haha great
Morocco is so good at building railway, praise from Indonesia

Morroco invested in infrastructure to improve the productivity of the nation. More less developed nations should follow this path. Invest in your future.
All nations should not just less developed nations. Sadly corruption is to high in most places
@Ali G Well, obviously it did in this case, given that road accidents decreased as a result, resulting in fewer financial and population losses for the economy. Not to mention new commercial developments at the stations and along the line, and reduced travel times between cities for business travelers (they are not far enough apart for planes to even have a temporal advantage at these speeds, when considering airport access and security times). I wonder why you hate high-speed rail so much that you'd make such a claim when the facts are right there.
@Ali G You do realize that railfreight is _by far_ the most efficient method of moving freight over land - it is why the USA, despite operating rail having been made as difficult as possible by regulation prompted by powerful car and oil lobbies, _still_ has the worlds largest and _vastly_ profitable railfreight network.
Yes, a highway network is good to have, but railways are the nonplusultra.
@Ali G Germany has mixed-use high-speed lines that are used for freight at night. If Morocco isn't doing the same, that's a bit of a silly oversight.
@Ali G. What planet are you from.
To correct you: yes it does improve. It's the basis for improvement
I remember arriving by train in Marrakesh about 20 years ago, and there were orange trees growing on the platforms, with ripening oranges in them.
The green and orange was beautiful in the mostly white station.
I had good experiences with the trains in Morocco back then.

this is not morocco it s an illusion
@@manafbenayache1880 Yeah of course we all know that this line doesn't exist.
@@freewal Let's be honest here. Even though this is the fastest train in Africa and a proof of development, Morocco, as for every developping country, presents very clear internal inequalities. The coast is clearly wealthier than the inner country, as expected. Developping railway infrastructures will certainly help the moroccan economy, encouraging the implementation of industry in the inner country, raising the wages in the mostly poorer regions.
Railway could also help "moroccanize" Western Sahara and probably end the dispute from a demographic standpoint. Indeed, implanting a sense of belonging in the local populations would compensate with the Algerian influence in the region. Algeria intends to spark conflict in the region to, in the long term, annex the region and gain access to the Atlantic Ocean. Railway infrastructure may well be the solution to the old Moroccan - Algerian rivalry.
Morocco could vastly benefit from the railway structure. Judging by the Moroccan populations in Europe, which are throughout the Old Continent sensed as "out of place" culturally and ethnically, a massive reverse brain drain could very well be started by the development of Moroccan economy.
@@manafbenayache1880 jealous Algerian.

Impressive train! I had the chance to take this train from Rabat to Tangier and then from Tangier to Casablanca; tried both 2nd and 1st class and I would say that I enjoyed them both. It is very comfortable and brand new. It's also affordable if you compare the ticket price with Germany or France. 1st class seat on this train is one of the widest and most comfortable train seats I've ever seen. I highly recommend it for any train lover.

“Why not just get a TGV?” is what the Dutch high speed rail line answered definitively: we bought something called “Fyra” instead from Italians, and it was so terrible they were decommissioned after three months and sent back to the manufacturer.
You should have bought Alstom or Siemens, only real manufacturers in Europe for high speed trains.
Amazigh Blue Azul - Anti Mafia - Anti ANPD those being the TGV and ICE respectively, yeah. I mean, even the Pendolino has a track record. But no, we had to go with a *different* Italian train from a manufacturer who has never made a high speed train before and said they could do it super cheap by just taking their existing medium speed design and making them ride faster.
I’d guess that the existing high speed rail manufacturers got a massive boost from that whole fiasco.
Edit: whoops, excuse me, the Pendolino has been bought up by Alsthom, and they also wanted to buy Siemens. Thank god the EU did not allow that merger, or we’d have had a true monopolist.
@@JasperJanssen Thanks God EU made possible to Chinese company CRCC, a state funded company, to enter in the European Market, and beat both Alstom and Siemens who wanted to merge to protect their position in the international market. Europe has to protect iself or it will collapse. Europe is naive. I would prefer an european monopolist situation than a chinese one.
I give kuddos to americans, they protect their market vs unfair competition.

This reminds me of a trip I went in in Morocco, sadly back in 2015 the train service wasn't quite as good. It took 10 hours to go from Fes to Marrakech passing through Rabat and Casablanca! How quickly things change
Sadlyit only runs from Tangier =>Casablanca, they should create extra lines from Fes=>Tanger + Fes=>Rabat-Casablanca and most importantly Kenitra-Rabat-Casablanca-Marrakech. Sadly the vision is lacking...
The vision is not lacking, but it's quite expansive stuff .... In the "Morocco rail plan 2040", there are high speed lines projected between "rabat-Oujda", and "casablanca-marrakech-agadir"
Respect Romania 🇷🇴 God bless people all around the world .
