Possibly thousands. This is south of Seattle. Because roads were given millions of dollars but railroads were given none and not nationalized, the railroad industry declined rapidly.

    I mean we did nationalize the railroads, but in the shittiest possible way: we nationalized the passenger services that were losing money (and some freight in the northeast) but we didn't nationalize the fucking track! Nixon you dickhead.
