Imagine you enter the train in New York at 8 pm, eat a nice meal, read or play a game, go to sleep and wake up at 8 am in San Francisco. No queuing in airports, no security checks, just the pure pleasure of traveling. Wouldn't it be nice? Well, it's not gonna happen in the USA. It is one of the important differences between the two continents: in Europe, public transport is important, and improving its infrasctructure is one of the metrics of success. In the USA, owning a car is important, and there is no (feasible) way to change it.
