À suivre , mais je vois que beaucoup d’utilisateurs publient en parallèle sur les 2 plateformes, donc ce n’est pas entièrement un exode. Mais dans tous les cas, la concurrence est une bonne chose.

So this isn't the US "building a new passenger train line" for Peru, but them selling old retired diesel trains... In a deal 500 times smaller than the one made by China.

BRI vs Barebones Railway Initiative? 😏

Anyways goes to illustrate once more how the U.S. still has zero response to the BRI...

Here is where it gets really funny, when you check the details of this "new passenger train line", this is in fact Caltrain (the commuter rail line in California) selling its retired diesel fleet to Lima for $6.3 million (src: sfgate.com/travel/artic...).
