Do train lovers have to love all trains equally? What if it happens to be the railroad equivalent of a Yugo?

For example the only thing about BART that I ever really liked was the fact it that used to go 100mph. They got rid of that in short order. The cyclops Rohr cars have to be about the ugliest transit cars ever manufactured. And it still rankles the hell out of me that they sabotaged it with broad gauge.

L.A has always had tremendous light rail potential and the Gold Line is proof of that. I only wish the experts around here would recognize that the Gold Line technology is what we should be using too.

I'll for sure be voting for high speed rail and encouraging all my friends to do the same. As for lo-speed rail SMART I doubt it. It looks like they can't even double track the thing.
