If you could get the over 65 set to realize the rail lines will help them get somewhere when their kid is at work, they might go for it.

I wish we could normalize it everywhere. I think most people would like trains, but only if they didn't have to also drive and park at a station, which is how so much of the country is set up now.

A society grows great when old men plant tree they will not sit in the shade of.
