Just use public transit bro

THIS is why public transit systems are never going to work in the west. Who wants to roll the dice for life vs death in order to save the environment?

It only works in homogenous high trust high IQ societies.

Restoring the Island Rail Corridor

No.2052036 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
When I visited Vancouver Island I noticed almost all major towns and cities exist on an almost straight line along the coast. I also noticed train tracks along the highway pretty much all the way from south to north. Looking it up, Wikipedia says the railroad service has been suspended due to poor conditions. Why won't the Canadian government restore the infrastructure and invest in a high-speed rail network?
Traffic wasn't too bad when I drove there but I imagine a decent railroad would massively cut travel times between cities, potentially making it the better option for commuters. Especially if it can be made affordable. BC is basically China already, maybe they can import some Chinese bullet trains too.

“Railfan”

At what point are you a “train enthusiast” vs “someone who just realizes that North America needs better trains?”

I don’t memorize Soviet trainsets, I just recognize that America would obviously be better off if we built a good rail network. I don’t have any preference or bias for trains, I just know that we need them to protect our environment and reduce traffic congestion. They would also improve travel times for many trips and revive downtown economies.
I don’t think that makes me a “railfan,” it just means I see an obvious truth.

Air India captain or first officer TURNED THE ENGINES OFF

>“In the cockpit voice recording, one of the pilots is heard asking the other why did he cut off” the fuel, said the report, by India’s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau. “The other pilot responded that he did not do so.”
Suicide by pilot.
The perpetrator is either the captain, who falsely accused the first offer of killing the engines, or the first officer, who falsely denied having done so when correctly accused of it by the captain.
India is a shame-based culture, so probably whoever did this hoped that they could pass it off as mechanical or human error (if the captain, then maybe pin it on the rookie FO) to protect their family name.
