@GenesisSanctuary it kinda seemed like you were , in any event what i say usually happens. It may not happen this decade but it will happen during over lifetime.
@Nexis4Jersey Hold on, who said I was getting angry? I'm simply stating facts. Just because you don't like diesels doesn't mean that they should all be killed off and replaced with electrics.
@GenesisSanctuary Calm Down already , sheesh getting angry over this .......Eventually everything will be electric , maybe not now , but in 10-20 years theres no escaping the higher fuel costs.....
@Nexis4Jersey First off, setting up catenaries does cost a ton of money that the country can't afford to waste. Second, even assuming they DID, which they won't, all of the railroads would have to start shelling out money to actually have electric locomotives built for them.
@GenesisSanctuary They wouldn't cost so much , if we had more plants over here to make them , EMU don't cost that much.....as for Diesels what happens when the fuel goes up.....hahaha, not so great eh...
@Nexis4Jersey You are so wrong. Electric engines are cool, but thwey break down far more often than diesels. Besides, they are far too expensive. There is no way in hell anyone would want to spend an unspeakable amount of money just to electrify everything.
@Nexis4Jersey Wow, what you just said makes you sound like some smug know-it-all.
