you can’t land planes on a railway. the interstate system in the US also doubles as emergency runways for aircraft. It’s actually baked into the system on purpose.
nevermind, turns out that “fun fact” I was about to tell you all is a myth, according to the DOT.

Godric@lemmy.world 1 day agoBomb railway Oops looks like no more movement for the forseeable future until we can get engineers to fill the crater and rebuild the track to spec. If you mess up repairs, the whole train can derail and back to square 1!
Bomb highway Oops looks like you have to go around the crater, that might add a minute to your journey. If it’s really big, you might have to take a ten minute detour until we can slather some gravel and asphalt over the hole.

Lmao if you think “bomb railway” is somehow easier than “bomb highway” then you are higher than the highways themselves.
