@volkaminn99903@ObiWanK95088527@_Silvervale_ You mean like amtrak yeah how's that going. Amtrak is majority owned by the US government. Your grammer might be confusing me btw. Do you mean it should be govnt owned or not govnt owned.
@ArchangeLDG@HeroOfCanton42@_Silvervale_ There are not really any dedicated passenger lines anymore just passenger companies like amtrak that are allowed to run on the mains of other railroad companies but they don't get priority over freight they have to wait in a siding for freight trains to pass.
@AArcanthys@JohnDoe13362586@linthiel@_Silvervale_ You do realize that the federal government has nothing to do with high speed rail when its localized to a state like California's high speed rail. Any issues pertaining to where track is layed and what land is used falls under eminent domain of the state it's built in not the fed
@Shut_It_Spencie@linthiel@_Silvervale_ Regional to a degree continental good luck. They do work in the US but most rail companies switched themselves from passenger to freight with the advent of the flying human sardine can.
@AArcanthys@JohnDoe13362586@linthiel@_Silvervale_ That was decades ago there are a lot more legal protections for land owners now compared to the time when the government could just say give us your land. Plus population density has gone up significantly so its even more of a nightmare. Look up the history of Cali highspeed rail
@JohnDoe13362586@linthiel@_Silvervale_ They can but that gets bogged down by legal action by the land owners its why the Cali high speed rail project is decades behind schedule on top of the money laundering. Taking land through eminant domain isn't as simple as some people think it is.
@Hunterblackfor5@_Silvervale_ No we don't each state has it own jurisdictions and laws. Then there are also city ordinances too. If you find a good map of the EU compared to the US the US is significantly bigger. Texas is larger than most European countries and that's one state.
@ObiWanK95088527@_Silvervale_ Because alot of us train autists also understand how cost prohibitive it is today and how railroads work in terms of their current opinions of passwnger service. Also we have tons of trains alot of it is freight.
@JohnDoe13362586@linthiel@_Silvervale_ You're also forget China doesn't care about land rights or what its citizens have to say about it. Plus none of that matter when the government owns everything even the land you live on.
@_Silvervale_ Then we also have to take into account loading gauge which in the US is much larger compared a European locomotive to an american one and you will see what I mean. Because even our old narrow guage locomotives are larger than most European locomotives which is funny.
@_Silvervale_ Because the US is way larger than every other country that has high speed rail networks. We also prioritize frieght over passenger because with the advent of the flying sardine can flying is cheaper than passenger service. Frieght is also more profitable etc. Not paying for twitr
@discord_support You just made canceling my nitro subscription so much easier and it renewed in March lol. Nobody was ever gonna trust you since the recent data breach. Will just remain a free user now. Unless the ens***ification continues.
To think Fate Grand Order might be ending. Been a wild 10 years and I don't want it to end. I remember back in 2016 & I saw King Hassan and thought he was cool. So I made a cosplay using only his art and sprite at the time & eventually won a cosplay contest in 2018.
Thank #FGO
@HLC_actual I suggest lion son of the forest, infinite and the divine, Eisenhorn, or ciaphas cain omnibus if you want a good 40k book.
