@laurieannek How are you going to get from a train station to wherever you are going in the town you arrive in?
A cab is a car. Some cities have lousy bus transportation...and if you live in rural USA, you're just plainly fucked.
So get off your ignorant train of thought. (pun intended)

I read every comment and try to reply where I can - but with 2.7 million video views it can take a little while. Thanks, Patrick Dixon
