FedEx goes after high-speed rail deal
FedEx Corp. said yesterday it was in talks with the French government about
using the country’s prestigious high-speed rail network to transport
packages and freight. FedEx, which uses Paris Charles de Gaulle airport as its main European hub, hopes the government will agree to link up the
high-speed TGV network to its facility, but a deal is likely to take years to negotiate, FedEx officials said.
