people trying to reinvent trains for the 20th time
worthy meteor
Improving trains is great but that won't get you VC funding quite like saying you invented something new
devout forum
Ironically the problem with trains is they'll never be competitive with flying for America
If you have to cover more than 650km in 24 hours
Flying just gets more economical for traveling
Cargo tho, rail is unbeatable if slow in comparison

its like that anywhere really

There have been numerous lawsuits, some of which resulted in fines, some of whic...
Though iirc the extent of the fines is back pay and paying lawyer fees and stuff, NLRB doesn't have actual authority to levy fines in punishment iirc. Doesn't help that anytime the NLRB rules against Tesla there is a judge waiting in the wings to overrule the decision. They get a lot of OSHA fines tho

But if you go to another EU country, flight is so much faster

I grew to dislike trains but that's because of Hungary being a god awful country that can't do anything right

A good rail network needs population density, cheap labor, and a willingness to put government funds into it
