With a small country, stable government, and national level funding, that's perfectly feasible. I wish that would work in the US, but we have hundreds of transit agencies that do capital projects.
- BDPW 4mo agoHas nothing to do with size, see Japan and China.
- sokka_h2otribe 4mo agoWhat does it have to do with then? My understanding japan has a surprisingly private train system, and China fits the model of "works when it's constantly expanding"
- Schiendelman 4mo agoJapan is mostly using exactly the model I suggested.
