How far can you go?

but like the Accordion era pre-Beatles, the great heydey of Passenger Trains
in the USA has passed..

That’s a huge shame. We’ve relied on trains to get around many parts of Europe when on vacation. Most of the time I rent a car for at least part of the time to explore the countryside, but the last trip to Italy was all train and bus. A simple, painless, and inexpensive way to travel.

Here, most of the time where we live it’s automobile or nothing. Can’t even get to the bus station without a car.

So be it, I am retired and dwelling on "4 hours of music in 6 months" rather than trying to get politicians to fund passenger rail......

If asked which was the more noble endeavor today, I would have to say your current challenge, since at least now you can get and give some pleasure in accomplishing that instead of knocking your head against an invisible wall.

True! But at least I got to buy some nice accordions….and it was fun to work on big projects that did get done in my tenure.
