Four Trains a Day on a High Speed Line in and around the Chinese Capital? [09 April 2025]
There's one High Speed line around Beijing which has — just four trains a day — serving Daxing Airport. This has David Feng more than a bit concerned — obviously a bit more than the once-a-week (probably) Parliamentary train on Chiltern Railways between London Paddington and West Ruislip. But is it a new line well used? Well, at least, it's there, good to go, with actual trains in actual operation!...

Shanghai Hongqiao railway station in China's largest city is big — busy — connected — and yet, the Express Transfer routes for making train connections is far from ideal.Either you have to haul your baggage up stairs — or wait for a lift that, too quickly, and too often, gets crammed with passengers...(But then again, this is one of the earliest interchange hubs in the network...)

Zürich Airport always seems to have this, that, and the other part renovated, expanded, or renewed. Everything from the toilet flush buttons to the immigration desks have been refreshed. The only thing missing: an expansion to its railway station. In this day and age where flight shaming very much remains a thing, perhaps the airport can share its bit of short-haul international flights with the trains — slash the number of planes from Zürich and Munich, Germany, and add more trains! Allow more intercontinental flights to use the airport — if you have to fly, at least make it more ecolog...

DavidTrainMic 16 - Trains on Taiwan
Orange trains, amazing interchanges, and the obsession with the "big egg" — suggestively-named stadia, futuristically-designed stations, and a smart ticketing and seat assignment system on Taiwan High Speed Rail. Looking back at my 2010 journey there...

DavidTrainMic 13 - The Amazing (Yet Confusing) Zürich Main Station (+ its Many Platforms)
What's not to love about Zürich main station (Zürich Hauptbahnhof)? You can hop on a train across the city, across the country, or across the continent. That, for one, is to be loved. Less loved, though, are the many — at times feeling even helter-skelter — platform areas. David Feng, as a Swiss from Zürich, helps you sort this out!

The Jubilee, Central, even Waterloo & City lines are often packed with passengers. Ditto for the Northern, Piccadilly, even District lines, and of course, the Bakerloo. Yet the Metropolitan was here first... and is often a bit lost, or more likely, forgotten, in the crowds. But travel on the Met, and you'll experience quite a different London Underground...

How can the dangers of military conflict and escalation be controlled as disputes related to the South China Sea, the East China Sea, and Taiwan play themselves out? What are the roles to be played by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and other coalitions? Can a security architecture be constructed that reconciles the core interests of all players?

148: How to Discover Your Terrain of Consciousness
Today I'm really excited to share with you a totally new approach to consciousness, called the Ten Terrains of Consciousness. It was developed by Allen David Reed and Tahnee Woolf and together, over many years of research they discovered that people are at different levels - meaning their lens or perspective is filtered differently based on the terrain they are at. Have you ever wondered why someone doesn't understand where you're coming from? Ever think someone is making absolutely no sense? Maybe you're curious why everyone is so polarized and not coming from a place of oneness. ...
