Looks like it's gunna happen, finally Albany can be connected to... nowhere, but really fast!
Saw this on the news last night, and couldn't help thinking about them spending millions on this just to have it fail epicly like the fucking ferry. At least if it works out I'll be able to see my brother quicker than before.
Monorail! What's it called? Monorail!
Wake me up when it's New York to DC and doesn't cost over $100.
The faster it goes, the more spectacular the crash.
This got me thinking about cocaine.
I'm seriously worried about that, I don't think I could ever ride this if it actually gets made.Quote:

Don't give us this waste of taxpayer's money at all.
As a country, we should continue to focus on building decentralized communities that require long commutes and extensive roadways.

This is supposed to continue on to NYC as well. Quick and easy way for the B-LO boys to get to TNL meetups (and Yankees games) confirmed.
wow a simpsons clip on youtube that hasn't been lawyered offline yet
Because it's fucking Albany to Buffalo. This is like dumping a few billion dollars on a light rail from Norfolk to Raleigh.Quote:

I want to meet that guy working on his truck on the Street View of Bug Tussle.
When I saw a street view of Bug Tussle, I thought, "That's it. Google has sucessfully mapped the entire world."
I'd like to think that maybe he turned around and said "WHAT'IN THE HELL YOU BOYS THINK YEW DOIN" and then sicked his hound dog on him.
I note this is not a VB thread.
He must have gotten it fixed. 'Cause he ain't there no more.Quote:

How do you propose for people and products to be transported once gas makes it too expensive to use vehicles?Quote:

I'm not looking to kill half of New York, thank you.
So Albany is the national priority?Quote:

I did pose the question because I don't know your opinion of transport offhand in terms of what the future should be and to what extent government support should be behind it. Should there be government support for the formation and support of roads? Highways? Railroads? What past that? Hell, forget government involvement. If you had a billion-dollar backed private corporation with the intent of developing for transportation, where would you invest?
I personally think transportation support and devleopment is paramount compared to other areas the government is (much less should be) involved in - having everything else barely matters if we can't get anywhere.
I agree with you. Infrastructure is one of the very, very few things the government should provide. Defense, public safety (fire/police), and education are about all the others.
I just want reasonable public transportation in Baltimore. You guys can take your future train and fuck yourself with it.
I was standing outside the Hour Haus last weekend and someone came around selling vegetables from a horse drawn cart. This is the strangest city in the world.
Never been to Cleveland I take it, eh?
we actually managed to catch a fucking river on fire

Here's another proposed railway to connect Detroit and Lansing. It would be privately funded if approved.
I wish it was in place now.
new york to dc or gtfo.
