    And more expensive too!

    Next step: reinvent the train, but call it uber on steel or uber on rails

      You just know it’s going to be individual rail cars so we can have traffic jams on rails!

          In Australia we do it by closing rail lines that are important, treating the non closed ones like horseshite, and only hiring the dumbest fuckwits possible to drive trains, slam brakes, and send people flying! 🥰🥰🥰

            To be fair, train drivers slamming on the brakes can be good if the train is behind schedule. It allows them to catch up by like half a minute per stop which adds up.

          I reckon you should consider that an embarrassment of riches, coming from a city with half hourly trains at PEAK.
