The train was so popular with passengers that Japan extended the Osaka to Okayama San\u2019y\u014d Shinkansen line to Hakata a decade later. Other nations followed Japan\u2019s example. France became the first European country to adopt high-speed rail in the 1980s. Germany, Spain and Italy also joined the fray and saw an uptick in customers as a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRenfe celebrated its 80th anniversary in 2021 and this year, we will celebrate the 30th anniversary of the arrival of the AVE,\u201d says Arteaga. \u201cSince that first connection between Seville and Madrid\u2026the AVE, in particular, is a success story and an emblem of Spain that defines the character and values \u200b\u200bof our country.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The European Commission has huge goals for high-speed rail. According to official documents, the proposed Trans-European Transport Network plans separate tracks for high-speed and regular rail, railway construction in smaller cities, improvements on current high-speed tracks, and more routes by 2040.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"38873\" src=\"http:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/02-tren-AVLO_avlo.com_editorial-1-1024x485.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-38873\"\/><figcaption>Renfe\u2019s low-cost, high-speed AVLO trains offer basic comforts as well as vending machines.
