Bruh Amtrak sucks because there’s extremely low rail density in this country generally and they don’t own any of their own tracks, so the (relatively) few trains that they do run are always getting waylaid by freight trains. Also maintenance requirements for rail companies is incredibly lax, which results in poorly maintained tracks, which limits the trains’ speeds. All of this is a simple public investment problem.
Really now, you can’t come in here with complete ignorance of why a thing is the way it is and say authoritatively that it all sucks, even in countries I’m 100% positive you’ve never been to. All generalized from a single personal anecdote.
I mean I guess you can, you did just do that, but you really shouldn’t. It makes you sound foolish.
