Rail Baltica
[edit]Rail Baltica should choose 1520mm gauge lines to Paris Nord, France, instead of 1435mm gauge lines to Tallin, Estonia. In addition, EU should fund French rail networks, not Baltic States. Population in Baltic States is shrinking, while population in France is increasing.
- Spain/Portugal: gauge conversion from 1668mm to 1435mm
- Baltic States: 1435mm gauge line (3kV DC) to Kaunas, Lithuania
- France: loading gauge enlargement
- CIS states, Baltic States, Poland, Germany, Belgium, France, Slovakia, Austria: 1520mm gauge lines (25kV 50Hz AC) to Paris, France
- Finland, Estonia: Helsinki-Tallin tunnel should be built at 1520mm gauge (double-track, 25kV 50Hz AC)
