Take that bet!

Overhead power still was the best. JMHO

Try living with celiac disease, then you will understand how much wheat gluten is used to fill products. I do!

To a degree. State has always stayed balanced even with the media being one sided. That is changing slowly as people here have been "turning off the news". To get rail to PHX it must be done with little to no state money. If they get a service from Phoenix to Tucson that would be the best...

Not a liberal state @ the state level. Some hope that a line into Phoenix would increase ridership to a level that was cost effective. At this time 1 or 2 state reps even think about passenger rail and that is both D's & R's. But they will give you lip service for rail. :rolleyes: Just...

Thanks for the info, I was just a country boy living close to the big city. ;)

Owned by Portland Transit Co. went out of business with car ownership. City owned buses now that run @ a loss, like trains. :(

Thanks Willbridge, having been raised outside Portland We would "drive" to the Sandy Blvd route for a ride into town. Then the Buses later. That made me remember my first train ride when I was 7yo. in 1955. Buses & Trains :)

Or you can just wait until it's over, like me!

Coming full circle. 😅

And then those that the TSA say "no fly".

I think in the long run Superliners are a gone. Just going to wear them out.

Just another thought....... Why are we worried about speed? Maybe we should slow down and enjoy the ride on the LD's Need speed .... take a plane!

Being I live with a wife in one(chair), they come in all sizes to fit people of all sizes.

The west route will be a normal political rat hole with every politician needing something that costs millions more for their election. Can only wait for someone to propose a highspeed bus. The hot pavement in AZ vs rubber tires. Sorry the mind just went there! East side of PHX is the...
