yeah, but can only load/unload in major ports

railyards

2020-03-14 15:31:15 UTC  

That's dumb as shit

2020-03-14 15:31:17 UTC  

Yes

2020-03-14 15:31:20 UTC  

Roads are purposefully indirect

2020-03-14 15:31:23 UTC  

still need to load with cranes

2020-03-14 15:31:26 UTC  

Railroads are direct as possible

2020-03-14 15:31:40 UTC  

You'd be giving up much of the advantages of railways if you had to have them tied to roads

2020-03-14 15:31:41 UTC  

You move bulk to a point then transfer to far more agile trucking

2020-03-14 15:31:50 UTC  

RORO does away with cranes, taking the whole truck/car like a ferry across a channe;

2020-03-14 15:31:52 UTC  

it depends really

2020-03-14 15:32:04 UTC  

some places have direct connections, some don't

2020-03-14 15:32:08 UTC  

Oh God it's actually the retarded dystopian commie dream he's got

2020-03-14 15:32:10 UTC  

I dunno why you think moving the whole truck by rail is any better than it being done normaly

2020-03-14 15:32:20 UTC  

some inherited the carriageway connections

2020-03-14 15:32:31 UTC  

Railcars atm are way too small to carry trucks lol

2020-03-14 15:32:58 UTC  

Also your acronym is retarded

2020-03-14 15:33:02 UTC  

If it requires cranes

2020-03-14 15:33:04 UTC  

It by definition

2020-03-14 15:33:04 UTC  

The us train can be expanded but the way freight is handled in the US is virtually unchallenged anywhere in the us in terms of robustness and effectiveness.

2020-03-14 15:33:08 UTC  

Cannot be roll on roll off

2020-03-14 15:33:09 UTC  

Bernies plan is fucked

2020-03-14 15:33:17 UTC  

hes a commie

2020-03-14 15:33:23 UTC  

of course its fucked

2020-03-14 15:33:28 UTC  

the us frieght system is shit

2020-03-14 15:33:35 UTC  

It literally isn't

2020-03-14 15:33:36 UTC  

it's just BETTER shit than most

2020-03-14 15:33:53 UTC  

Roro isn't a solution

2020-03-14 15:33:55 UTC  

dude, they do it the same way they have done for decades

2020-03-14 15:33:57 UTC  

boomer tech

2020-03-14 15:34:12 UTC  

@NinjaQuick for context about mas thoughts on transport he thinks that cargo boats should be replaced by intercontinental trains

2020-03-14 15:34:36 UTC  

Makes sense.

2020-03-14 15:34:49 UTC  

Or. Boats that can easily roll into rail tracks

2020-03-14 15:34:55 UTC  

standard gauge used by freight is what PREVENTS utilizing high-speed rail system wide

2020-03-14 15:35:04 UTC  

Just

2020-03-14 15:35:12 UTC  

Lay high speed rail for passengers.

2020-03-14 15:35:21 UTC  

The point of cargo boats is their capacity for a *large* amount of cargo in one go >.>

2020-03-14 15:35:22 UTC  

doesn't WORK that way

2020-03-14 15:35:23 UTC  

Freight at high speed is a bad and unnecessary idea
