    This is a new one: this fellow is saying Japan's excellent railway network is a myth because it...is busy and goes everywherehttps://twitter.com/GuidoFawkes/status/1003911876915486721 …

    Myth. City trains packed, intercity trains ditto. Rural services patchy. Next.

        Busy in the cities and major intercity routes, quiet elsewhere...wow, just like roads, imagine that! The difference of course being that the trains stay on time when they get crowded, while roads slow down to a crawl in the same circumstances. Kinda like one is better for crowds!

        "Ah yes. I'm sure farmers are just BEGGING for their property to be carved like a ham via rail." The reason rural coverage is 'spotty' is because Japan doesnt just rip through everything like the US Feds do as far as I know

        What even is "spotty"? The network is excellent by European or American standards.

        this is a poor take--people in Japan use airplanes for long-distance trips too, even if it's possible to make the trip by train instead

        needless to say, most Japanese airports are accessible by train, and all (that I know of) are accessible by bus)

        Oh yes. America doesn't have a rail network because of: * 1960's through 1990's white flight which made all interurban travel suburb->suburb or suburb->urban at best. * Transit Unions who double the cost of rail service if not more. * Buy America

        Lion's share of Japanese rail ridership is also suburb-suburb and suburb-urban; that's where the most profitable routes are. Domestic manufacture is a tremendous asset to their railways, and their railway workers are unionized. The problems here aren't as simple as they look!

        Japan's rail network is also fully privatized, yet cheap /and/ running a profit, despite building everything locally.

        I loved the train in Kyushu. It was wonderful and way better than what Korea had at the time.

        One of the worst, most cocksure, & provocative-in-a-totally-nondissident-&-nonrisky-way accounts on Twitter. Never thought he was even worth a blocc. On 2nd thought...
