Marrakech – A CBS 60 Minutes episode aired on April 5 cited Morocco’s Al Boraq high-speed train as a model of modern rail engineering, contrasting it with the United States’ failure to build its own.
The segment, reported by Jon Wertheim, opened with a pointed acknowledgment. “The very model of modern engineering, it hums across the fruited plains at a top speed of 200 miles-an-hour. It revolutionized travel, it’s a source of national pride… in Morocco,” Wertheim said.
