I just think the following two things are mutually exclusive:

- requiring a private diesel train, operated and subsidised by the government for a economically unviable number of people, in order to survive

- living off grid in a sustainable manner

To me off-grid sustainability isn’t just “carbon neutral”, it’s being able to exist somewhere without assistance from the wider society.

And what amounts to a private train is an egregious amount of assistance, IMO.
