As others have already explained, the rest of Europe stresses its
long-welded rail within different parameters, appropriate to the
standard weather conditions in the country concerned. Nevertheless, the
UK is not the only country suffering from restrictions due to weather
conditions beyond the expected norm

So which ones are exactly? Spain, France, Germany, Portugal have no
problems at all on their rail systems. So which ones have problems? And
what problems? And is it the heat causing them?
British rail transport has become a joke round the world. And rightly
so.
