Reply to comment by GrenadoHencho in Andy Byford, ex- NYC Transit boss, to work for Amtrak by p4177y

There's a pretty easy solution to that that basically every other country on the planet has done. Nationalize the railroads, or at the very least, the infrastructure.

I agree but appointing Andy Byford doesn’t get us any closer to that scenario. That’s my point. He’s a celebrity among urbanist nerds but he’s not some superhero who can force the nationalization of an entire industry.
