And I can be fairly sure that Delaware will see an improvement in it's rail system over the next four years.

trains in general, not just railroads

I took an Amtrak train round trip.

It's like an airplane, but cheaper and with a dining car.

I didn't even take the Acela, which is their really good line.

Railroads > Airplanes.

^Hopefully, Pennsylvania will step up and start taking some initiative. Pennsylvania has a rich railroad past and it needs to start thinking about its future. Once they can put up the money to tunnel under the Allaghenys, they can start thinking about a high speed rail line between Pittsburgh and Philly. -CSM

We need a Transcontinental Railroad.

Who has a Golden Spike?

Rainbow Dash · 11-06-2008, 09:26 PM

Isn't the original transcontinental still around?

Robotazy · 11-07-2008, 07:08 AM

Well, we need another one.

The old one is good, but kids need overabundance.

We should really get to work on the transintercontinental.

A transcontinental railroad won't work for today's high speed slick passenger trains. In order for those to work, there needs to be smaller, regionalized systems operated by multi-state agencies. -CSM
