Nothing is cheaper or more efficient and green then shipping by rail. We used to have an amazing rail network in NA (eu still does) and we basically have letf it fall into ruin and become a shell of what would constitute a functioning railway. It literally has done everything possible to kill passenger rail and make shipping via rail painful / unreliable.
If we had not trucking wouldn’t be the only option and we would be better for it

- AdamN 3y agoActually US freight train system is ahead of EU. It's just the passenger system that's broken.
- midasuni 3y agoThe US shifts the same order of magnitude of goods by train as trucks The EU shifts about 10 times by truck as by train Rail freight in the US is praiseworthy.
- katbyte 3y ago> Rail freight in the US is praiseworthy. watch the video and get back to me on that statement.
- kortilla 3y agoThe US has a better freight rail system than the EU. It’s why passenger trains suck. We inverted the priorities.
