Why not just put everything in the same place so we don't need a railroad between the places? It's not like commerce between remote moon bases is an imminent problem. Are there more places to go on the moon than I'm aware of?

The easiest places to land, easiest places to base humans, easiest places to extract in situ resources and most-interesting places to explore are various. You don’t need a hundred sites to start with. But being able to segregate even just the extraction and production environments from living and landing spaces would help tremendously (not least in avoiding thrown-up regolith).

It's a 10 year study, and we (humanity) have plans for more than one moon base within the next 10 years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemis_program https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemis_program https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Lunar_Research_Station https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Lunar_Research_S...
