Good. All the infrastructure is there already mostly (we aren’t building new train lines). The only issue is border checks, but wouldn’t take that long to sort out as we have St Pancreas in London for that already.
And no it wouldn’t run to the North of England before anyone chimes in because the trains in the EU run on a different track size to the rest of the UK.

With our powers combined, the train will take twice the time to be there!

How will they fix the border-control problem? If the British government insists on checks before boarding the train (cf Brussels, Paris, Lille), will there be a separate secure border zone at Berlin Hbf? Who will pay for the border officials?

Could we please manage the train connection between Berlin and any other German city?

What’s the point, a flight is much quicker.

Why can’t you do direct trains to Southwest (especially Cornwall) or bullet trains all over UK first (too)?
