Most enjoyable seeing these glimpses of what America used to be.

[sfsssl55]

Very cool to see the "New England States" rolling into Boston.

[Trainfanz]

Back then it was anything, that acted, like, or WAS an F7.

@intercityrailpal This is the truth - it was absolutely insane not to link north and south station! Politicians and the media will support any half-ass highway project that comes along, but try to build a thousand feet of railroad, rapid transit, or light rail track, and people start baying like wolves. The proposed Red Line - Blue Line connection involves less than 700 feet of track, and yet people oppose it like it was a toxic waste dump on Snooty Beacon Hill.

Well... Not quite. The Pacific Railway was what we might call today a public-private partnership. CPR was a private corporation that worked in coordination with the national government. The cost was shifted to the Canadian public and Canada went bankrupt. Lots of times. Thats our story. Going broke by paying for public infrastructure to allow private companies to commercially extract staple commodities!

[papoocanada]

contrary to other countries, Canada, France , Germany, England, Russia, India, Brazil etc.. the US have never had a national railway system. It was all private industry and they all went bankrupt.

Lovely to watch some american train culture.

@intercityrailpal By the way motorist now get a free car wash on the "PIG" the tunnel under the river that was just built is leaking big time. And with people driving less, it could bankrupt the state!

[intercityrailpal]

The big "Pig" highway project in Boston cost billions and billions of dollars. I pretty much goes by North and South stations. Think we could get 10 feet for a track tieing Northern New England with Southern New England and 10 states south by rail. NO! The road lobby runs this country. The sad case is their not even American's Most are overseas oil people.
