A2: Trains

The New York Times publishes a letter to the editor from Bob Faber of Ann Arbor, who describes the advantage of trains over cars: ”Now, when traveling to Chicago from Ann Arbor, I can read, use my computer, nap and snack, knowing that any one of these activities in the automobile would have very unpleasant consequences. It’s a good idea to fix the potholes, but let’s put the real money into the railroad.” [Source]
