It seems to me there’s a more autistic netizen than the railfan: the train-hater presents more autistic than any foamer I’ve ever seen.
Train-haters use any excuse whatsoever to diminish American passenger rail, even when they make no sense.
>Trains will be more expensive than [x mode of transport]!!1
So? They’re faster and more comfortable than planes or cars for regional trips.
>Trains will be full of poor minorities because they’re cheap!!1
What plane have you been on that didn’t have any minorities? Also I thought you said it would be more expensive than planes?
>No one will take the train because they need a car at the end!!1
Last time I checked, plane tickets don’t come with a free car on the end but Americans still fly. No reason for trains to be any different. Also train stations are right downtown so a large (and ever-growing) portion of riders won’t need a car.
Autistic train-haters just throw as much shit at the wall as they can and hope something sticks, even if it contradicts their earlier statements. Impossible to take them seriously.
