electric trains not really viable.

You’re trolling as Europe, China and Japan are covered in electrified lines. They work phenomenally.

Hydrogen trains are just a scam meant to keep fossil fuels in use longer.

all those fancy rails are just a maintenance nightmare, and much more energy intensive.

They’re actually cheaper to service. You’re just making up that last part.

Siberia has an electric railway and it’s doing fine.
