MODERATORS
Even more ideally there should be ample public transport at either end of the high speed line so a car isn't necessary, and freight trains are far more efficient than carrying a lorry containing a single container.
Eurotunnel is relatively unique as it bridges the UK to the rest of Europe, and the only other realistic option is a slower ferry journey. Where continental journeys are concerned there's no need for them to be able to carry vehicles in my opinion.
It's not that unique, RORO trains aka rolling highways are used throughout Europe, but for freight only: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_highway
We'll, guess I learned something today and stand corrected. Thanks
