Default (Times): Britain to have fastest train service in the world within 12 years

If it makes sense to have the TGV serve Charles de Gaulle and have an
airport station at Schipol (also Frankfurt), then having the high speed
line access Heathrow is worthy of very serious consideration.


Although the TGV (and the RER) only service one of the three terminal
complexes at CDG. If you have the misfortune to be using the other two,
there's a significant extra leg to the journey.
