    lol

    lmao, even

    Just build a fucking train, it’s stupid that Denmark doesn’t just have rail everywhere. DSB is a joke. Banedanmark is underfunded. Light rail doesn’t go anywhere useful unless you live in Copenhagen. Intercity is way too expensive to matter unless you get discount tickets a month in advance. IC trains are so frequently not-running that it’s become a major point in my buddys argument for working from home.

      Come to BC. We have trains from Vancouver going to Seattle and Portland(via US run Amtrak(70-100$ US), a transit train from Mission to Vancouver and back, once a day each way(5-15$ depending on distance) and a 3000$ a ticket train going to Jasper, Alberta from Vancouver BC and back.

      Yaaay Conservatives. Thanks for ruining passenger rail.

        The continental US is roughly 2/3 the size of Europe. Comparing Denmark to it is nonsensical given the differences in size.

          IDK if size really matters here. Connecting Chicago to Milwaukee (100mi) with HSR probably makes sense

          there are many others too:

          Chicago-Indianapolis (200mi)

          Chicago-St Louis (300mi)

          Chicago-Pittsburgh (500mi)

          so many good connections
