      hear me out: supply chains and manufacturing that go into supporting a railway system require a large and technologically developed city

          here's my offer: we abandon ten stagnant cities, revert them to wilderness, and their residents move to one active city--massive net loss in urbanized land area, massive net gain in wilderness land area

          I can think of dozens if not hundreds of cities that are half-abandoned already, all their industrial buildings half a century out of date if they're even still running, everyone living there is trapped and in despair--let's get em OUT OF THERE and give those places back

          the question is how does this happen? you’d have to take their property away from them, and give them land from the other metroplex u gotta stuff them into... it’s a win for everybody in the long term but a lose-lose for all parties on the ground while it happens.

          Ya it obv won't work if you have to put a gun to someone's head to get them to do it; somehow the people moving out would need to get a payout for any land they held (tho I gotta say: lotta renters with unstable housing in such cities!)

          For the same reason, the city which they'd move to would have to be a city which--unlike most in USA--actually wanted to grow and develop further regardless: if you want more wilderness, you gotta build on less of it

          I guess the bigger takeaway is that for these large-scale schemes to work, it’ll take strong leadership and a well thought-out plan to minimize losses to stakeholders, and maximize systemic gain. the first may be lacking for now, but in the meantime the 2nd can be worked on...

          I'm not convinced by that. How big were our cities when the first tracks were laid down? You don't need a big city to maintain trains, at least. How many people do you need to build them?
