I don't see how we have lost anything with this.after india was the loser of the railway era and expressway era, India will be the loser of "highspeed railway era" again.

Big public services often exist despite running in the red. The Shinkansen system in Japan flirts with bankruptcy and the AMTRAK system in the US is unprofitable and only remains b/c of US subsidies.Since the normal rail lines are being shut down, we can expect that farmers will be flying instead of taking high-speed rail.
That may be how it works in China, but in France the TGV is all about making a profit. If a line doesn't make money, they shut it down.
There has been some discount airlines in serious trouble mainly private, like u mentioned, yet mostly due to their mal-managment or operations.China express train forces airlines to stop flights
suggest u do some analysis and observe it objectively.Cut the bull guy, it is obvious CCP is cutting conventional rail and airlines to force people to take the high speed rail.
HSR is in direct competition with regional airlines, so CCP cuts flights to put more butts in seats to make HSR viable at the expense of airlines. Also cut the other train routes for same purpose as stated in the OP.suggest u do some analysis and observe it objectively.
China is vast. therefore HSR and airlines have to differentiate their products for different segments of travellers.
Are you daft mate? All of it is owned by CCP who isn't concerned with competition. Their only concern is filling up their new wonder trains.by the way do u forget airlines are mostly state-owned in China? don't make yrself a laughing stock by asserting 'to force people to take the high speed rail' blah blah.
They passed out free tickets for migrants during Spring Festival and cut student tickets in half.China isn't a Utopia where CCP passes out train tickets for freee (though I'd love it).
great, that's sweet and humane in taking care of the needy though I didn't get that among those students or migrantsThey passed out free tickets for migrants during Spring Festival and cut student tickets in half.
You are wasting your time in arguing with Armand2REP on china problem. This guy knows nothing about China and he doesn't bother to do any research. The only reliable informations for him are those papers run by exiled chineses or Epoch times.great, that's sweet and humane in taking care of the needy though I didn't get that among those students or migrants
Here are propoganda pictures of migrants with their free tickets.You are wasting your time in arguing with Armand2REP on china problem.

the guy just accept the "truth" chozen by him.LOL, this is THE MOST absurd , THE MOST hilarious argument i have ever heard.
During the Spring Festival, the total number of railway passenger trips reached 210 million. So how many free tickets did CCP distribute to the peasant workers?
As you pointed out, it was just a propaganda, but now this pure propaganda becomes an evidence that proves all railway passengers were subsidized by CCP?
LOL, you are easily brainwashed by CCP, CCP loves people like you! So innocent!
