Why America Needs More Trains



A lot of people wonder whether or not train service is something that the US should invest in. After all, we are a nation of car lovers and trains are seemingly unnecessary for getting people from place to place. And when a car doesn't suffice? Well, we get on a plane to fly halfway across the country. Besides, while a train serves a great purpose now and then, most people still get to work by climbing into their car and driving there.

That being said, I truly believe that train service is something we should invest in and do more of. Don't believe me? Check out this actual photo taken at DC's Union Station. 2 minutes before departure? Where else does this happen?
