    Thats not really true and you know it. Cars are like trains, limited mostly to paved roads that need to by built.

      Are you seriously trying to tell OP that he’s lying about not living near a train? Or are you trying to say that the part about them running on a fixed track isn’t true? Either way, this is a really dumb take.

      Also, you clearly haven’t been to rural areas, where dirt and gravel roads are common. Cars handle those just fine.

      But those roads are far more numerous and further reaching than train tracks. Trains go from a to b. Cars can go which ever route you want. And you don’t build train tracks around a house.

        Thats not true also. Rails have junctions that alow switching tracks and work like a normal road. The reason theres more roads is irelevante as it depends on investment. Some places invested more into roads and others did in rail. Check out old rail maps on the US
