I’ll take the backroads in my dumb little fartbox. It will take twice as long and I’ll hear banjos the entire time but at least I’ll have fun.
Oh, and my car won’t leave without me.
I'm not gonna try and take any of that away from you, but I'm pretty sure fartbox is slang for butthole?
Or hoopty, a junky vehicle.
If you miss your train just catch the next one, it'll be here in like 10 minutes.
I wish that would be true
Even in farm country in Japan, some lines run little 3 car trains every 15 minutes. 100 year old, single track, that splits at stations so trains can go by eachother. You can even take your bicycle on the train. The stations are mostly unmanned.
How does the situation in farm country Japan matter to me when I miss my train and have to wait 1 or 2 hours for the next one?
Happy for those that get to use those trains, but thats just not a universal train experience
The point is that things don't have to be so bad; places with probably less demand run more trains, you just have to force the train companies to invest in infrastructure instead of stock buybacks.
