...trying to electrify a majority of the existing rail lines here in the US would be too much of a headache to be honest...

What would be needed for a planetary based shield? How many turns and how many megawatts would be needed? Could nuclear perhaps satisfy the requirements?

Yup yup. Which makes terraforming mars a impossible task. The sun would strip away the atmosphere. Although it might be theoretically possible to generate a artificial magnetosphere, the power requirements would be... incomprehensible I think. Far, far beyond anything we can generate at this time. Shielding space craft and suits is one thing, doing the same to a planet is an entirely different beast.
