Just how bad is the European commute that they need to go through the alps at 200mph everyday?

    I heard that when they built the Lötschberg train tunnel to connect the upper Wallis area with Thun and Bern, people started commuting through there. Visp-Thun is only half an hour and Visp-Bern is only an hour now. But yeah I still don't think it's that many.

    Also Swiss trains don't run that fast, it's more like 155 mph in the Lötschberg.
