I'm trying to find real TV ads for newly-launched high-speed rail service around the world to show off to people in Florida. I spent most of Saturday searching Youtube, but found nothing that really looked like it could be an American TV commercial besides this one from Thalys:

I found other TV ads from countries with HSR, but the main problem I've found with all the ads from Japan and France is that the novelty of HSR wore off a LONG time ago, and the ads are now all focused on destinations where HSR travel just happens to be one part.

I suspect there's a slew of big-budget ads promoting HSR travel running on TV in China, Russia, Italy(?), Spain(?), and possibly other countries... but I have no idea what to search for. Any suggestions?

Unfortunately service is suspended due to damage from the earthquake.

I consider this Eurostar-video to be very nice as well (be sure to set the video to 480p for best sound quality... it's really much much better):
