Don’t let Musk or his companies anywhere near these projects. He and his team are experts at turning actual infrastructure into vaporware.

Yeah, the Vegas loop, as I understand it to be built, would never be allowed by any sane or even rogue/mad civil engineer, and that’s basically just a gussied up go-kart tunnel. No way in fuck they need to be allowed anywhere near train infra.

more of biden’s infrastructure bill money to steal… congressionally approved and allocated money. early site prep has already begun, even.
letting muskrat anywhere near this has great potential to really fuck-up the entire northeast corridor for a decade or two–or longer, for passengers and freight.
