@TradesToTech@aunt_t_iffa@EricsRambles Yeah bro we should design our cities around bringing your mom into surgery bro, great idea. Really generational genuis
@RAILMag Yeah the conversation tends to have an "all or nothing" feel to it and I think we really need to be smart about which corridors focus on intercity rail. That being said, 90% of those corridors are completely underserved so it's hard for the general public to see the light.
@Noahpinion@alanthefisher You have far FAR less likelihood of getting stabbed on any public transit in the US even in its abysmal state then you do of being one of the 40k people who die in a car crash every year dawg
@stvcrtr Also super good move on the pinch runner, the breakdown says it's all about his "read" but that's just smart baseball. He knows he can get back to second in time if it gets caught because the focus will be on the guy running home after the catch - so he just takes a fat lead.
@BlackWolfNews@JaxTrelly@LiamBlank Hahah yeah man remember when all the railroads were run by private groups and they completely abandoned all passenger rail service outside of a few profitable lines? That'll totally work.
@RAILMag @classicryan17 Definitely not an EMU. It’s actually an “APV” or auxiliary power vehicle. It’s directly connected to the loco and supplies power when it’s under wires
