No. We're not even on board with trains as a concept outside of the context of heavy freight shipping. The people are. But big oil spends a lot of bribe money to make sure you can't easily ride a train across the country.

Big freight train spends a lot on bribing too, to avoid needing to spend even more from being required to improve their services.
