“Quantum Strider” transforms all of the capital cities in the Baltics together with Helsinki into the so-called Finno-Ugric-Baltic network with a population of 11.6 million people. A new underground connection between Tallinn and Helsinki will become vital. Finland is like an isolated sea island looking from the perspective of Europe and Tallinn is potentially the closest link between them. Why not close up those gaps by creating a fast and efficient hub that will teleport passengers from Helsinki to Tallinn in twenty minutes?
Furthermore, reduced travel time allows for a so far non-existent synergy. We are not only discussing that this fast hub will enabling us to travel quickly from Tallinn to Helsinki, we are also pointing out that from now on it is possible to define Helsinki and Tallinn as one. The “Talsinki Finno-Ugric metropol” holds great potential and real attraction for the Baltics States, a challenge for St. Petersburg, a rival for Stockholm, and the real destination for Rail Baltica.
