    Better yet, replace all the long haul routes with electric intermodal rail. That way you don’t take away from battery production, publicly funded roads last longer, and freight gets much cheaper. The main problem is that railroad executives put the rail industry in “managed decline” because their fleet management and organization is so shit that any customer that can will pay a massive premium to never interact with them.
