Would that really work as well as the interstate though? Just letting anybody on the interstate is mostly fine because if they run slow or way behind or breakdown you just go around them.
When someone runs shitty trains that breakdown and block the whole track though...

- jboles 8y agoThis is easily solved by charging the users of the shared infrastructure a rate based on their usage, with penalties for breakdowns. Australia had a similar problem when the rail infrastructure part was split off into ARTC. Some dodgy operators started up with clapped out old locomotives that often broke down. Those operators didn’t last long when they had to pay fines for blocking the track.
