How often are lines built that "don't have to be fast" but whose fastness comes "cheaply enough" that it is taken as an additional benefit?

Is there ever a usage case for a newly built slow line outside of S-Bahn systems?
November 27, 2025 at 12:15 PM
My evidence for this is, among other things, that Germany usually justified its HSLs on capacity grounds and still didn't build "slow" lines.

What's the price differential for a newly built line at various speeds?
November 27, 2025 at 12:15 PM
He did however acknowledge that capacity constraints make lines like Prague-Dresden imperative.

Now my impression has been that absent weird edge cases the marginal cost savings in a newly built 160 km/h line versus a 300 km/h line ain't worth it

How does this compare to Paris?

Are they getting serious about sCO2 in nuclear?

Or we could build nuclear and have clean power on demand...
