Just bring back the "Montanabahn". That was an awesome idea that would make me want to head up there, fast car in tow.

I agree By all rights the Federal goverment has no business telling States how to run their own roads.

If the Federal Government is going to pay states to build roads then they must pay the states in block grants.

Montana should be allowed to reestablish the “Montanabahn” Someone in America has to do it, and Montana with its large size and relatively small population seems the prefect place.

Think of the Tourism, a place where we can drive across country as fast as we want?

Summer of ‘71. Drove across almost the entire state lengthwise in a little under 7 hours in my Dodge Challenger. I thought “reasonable and prudent” was an average 90+ mph. Buried the needle a few times in some of the flat areas. Ah, the good old days before the socialists took over.

I got a $40 ticket on the “Montanabahn” this summer.
