How is it different from every other rail network in the world?

France’s high speed trains have a dedicated network of tracks. They don’t have to share those tracks with regional and cargo trains.

		btw every high speed train network is separated from the conventional one otherwise they will never be able to travel as fast as 300km/h

I imagine if you have a culture of great engineering you don't expect it to collapse when you lean on it.
