Ah

I see Deutsche Bahn has taken to behaving like a night train startup and started drawing lines on maps - for a sort of dream 2050 high speed network

Sure, aim high. But there's not a hope in hell this comes to pass given current politics. I don't think DB can even deliver on the bits of it that it'd have to deliver on

@jon looks like a good idea. HH-H, S-Zürich and S-Würzburg are very important, but then they need another train station in Stuttgart.
@prefec2 Sure, the ideas are OK. Not a hope in hell it happens though.
@jon it's a shame.
