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've literally never been on a train in my life. We have a ton of rail, but it's for supplying coal to the power plant by the highschool and that just switched to LNG so they're just ripping up the tracks to make way for luxury condos. We used to have a street car system in the 20s, but they tore it all up and took the remaining streetcars and put diesel engines and tires on them so they're just shitty buses. Then they sold them to a local brewery to ferry drunk patrons to their cars at a parking lot across town.

    Fuck America.
