Europe’s busiest airport for cargo traffic is Charles de Gaulle International in Paris, and is actually the 6th busiest, in terms of cargo, in the world.
With an average speed of 263.3km/h (163.6 mph) from station to station, the French TGV is the fastest train in the world. During a test run in April ’07, it reached a record-breaking 574.8km/h (357.16 mph). Furthermore, it’s also the endurance record-holder, making the 1067.2km (663.12 miles) run from Calais to Marseille in 2001 in just under three and a half hours.
The tallest bridge in on the planet is the Millau Viaduct, which was completed in 2005. Spanning the valley of the River Tarn, on the A75-A7 autoroute from Paris to Béziers and Montpellier, at its tallest point, it stands 343.0m (1,125ft) high, and has been dubbed the ‘cloud bridge’.
