Maybe he's just sick of your repeated assertions that the Pennsylvania would still be running passenger service today if only the government had collapsed in the 1950s and plunged the country into a state of anarchy that persisted for the next sixty-odd years.I'd love to ride the Crusader, but let's face it, there were only three possibilities: (1) The government takes over all rail service, and may choose not to operate the Crusader. (2) The government regulates rail service but doesn't run it, and all passenger trains shut down in the 1970s or 80s when the railroads go bankrupt. (3) The government stops regulating and all passenger trains shut down in the 1950s or 60s when the railroads, unburdened by ICC dictates, discontinue their unprofitable passenger service. |
