Rail. But we would still need something to move the cargo from the rail yard to the warehouse.

“Rail. But we would still need something to move the cargo from the rail yard to the warehouse.”
Just scratching the surface here....
You’re talking about ending the JITS system (Just In Time Supply) the entire world now operates on and returning to a early 20th century system where everything from raw materials to finished products are warehoused awaiting orders.
Rail was used earlier in history because it was the ONLY practical way to transport items across the country. Then the modern trucking industry came into being and proved much more economical than the rail system.
Old factories all had rail lines leading to them. Producers bought a box car of product, had the box car delivered and unloaded quickly before they were hit with a delay penalty by the railroad.
Rail can be an add on to the trucking industry but not replace it without more economic pain than you can imagine.
And do you want everything produced, transported and sold in this country in the hands of ONE union?
