The destruction of rail infrastructure in the US is a deliberate political project, just as it’s a deliberate political project in Germany to at least make sure that trains aren’t competitive with cars for most situations.
It’s so cool that they are now spending about as much money to bring down fuel prices by like 20% for 2 months instead of ticket prices down by 90% for a year.
It’s still crazy to me that even some nowhere country like hungary has better passenger rail than the US

i have feelings about this that i can absolutely post on public spaces without having to add “in Minecraft”
Uzbekistan has more electrified railways than the entirety of USA.
I was going to say that Hungary probably has a higher highway density than most of the US too but no that’s mostly on par
The legacy of socialism, buddy.
Hungary? Why don’t they get something to eat
