not unless we get rid of TRASH LOCOMOTIVES, embrace MU POWER for better rail future!

you bet! we already run most of our subways, and some commuter rail lines, with MUs...but they are overbuilt due to FRA regs...
-
...FRA requires them to be much heavier than needed which reduces speed, maintenance benefits...huge problem!

can be diesel or electric as convenient, can run on batteries, can be hybrid if necessary

best part of MUs is that all carriages are for passengers instead of wasting one just for engines

which also means it's practical to run 1 or 2 car trains in rural areas--with locos, those areas would have no service at all
