From what I can tell about 90% of Americans respond to phrases like "passenger train" with sheer panic.

True.

And here, this conversation is kind of a re-tread of the past 10 years where we had to fight to get the passenger train, because all these drivers couldn't be bothered to give up a lane of traffic. Unfortunately that's just a fact of life in a sprawled American city, but luckily, the city fucking loves the train so it's that much harder for suburbanites to find support.

I have been on exactly one train in the US and it wasn't great tbh
