Willie, Willie, Willie.

You’re so blinded by your utopian visions of toy trains running everywhere that you have to turn a logical economic argument into one of your “racism” fantasies.

mountainlion was discussing the very privileged few who suck up taxpayer subsidies to fund their toy train trips. The majority of those are WHITE. And unfortunately, many of those whose tax monies are pissed away are “persons of color”. Who’d prefer their taxes help their own communities instead of fat cat train commuters.

But then you knew that anyway, I’m sure. That silly racism charge is just a diversionary tactic to take attention away from the idiocy of un-economic high speed toy trains.

No reason you couldn't ~ provided you didn't exceed the design parameters of the road set to facilitate the robotic devices.

BTW, I don't want to be the first guy to use one of these roads without hideaway 50 cal. machine guns mounted under the hood or something ~ just to clear away emergency stuff eh!

This article is about high-speed passenger rail in Britain,
but your off-topic bigotry against minority travelers in our own country is duly noted.

I am not bigoted against minority travelers but minority groups getting large amounts of pork form the government form the government whether it be big bankers or a small railroad business. This is a pattern you are posting supporting railroad pork for all countries.

I see there is another multi week traffic jam in China also.
