    This is why I find the response “people don’t use rail much in the US, there just isn’t the demand, we have to wait until there is demand” so annoying. It’s like Amtrak sucks, I would have spent innumerable more time on trains if Amtrak wasn’t overpriced crap that makes you book far in advance like a fucking airline flight in order to get a reasonable ticket price.

    I pretty much only utilize commuter rails like the MTA in Boston because they are so much more functional and affordable.
