I am genuinely curious because any time I travel overseas, I love trains. Airport to Downtown - Oslo rules. German rail needs a lot of investment but do enjoy rail in western Europe as well. Trains in Japan - superlative. Korea, upped its game in the last 20 years - the least one can say.
I just wonder, is it the distances that prevent better infrastructure in the US? Or is it really NIMBY and old cargo rail interests preventing rail from flourishing in the US?

as a fellow lefty fountain pen enthusiast, suggest blotting paper. Well worth the price...not that it costs all that much.
