Thank you! I knew I stole it from somewhere but didn't have a clue where from.

The snozzberries taste like snozzberries!

"Ew no"

Haha just kidding but making a point how most of us are our own worst enemy on this stuff. We want friends but don't make time for them.

Did you know they were supposed to be basically human CPUs, not batteries, but they assumed the audience wouldn't understand? Stupidest choice ever.

Not sure where you're from but if you pretend it's Switzerland then this comment is for you https://reddit.com/r/trains/s/UE3DSOPUdf

I mentioned it in my comment that you're replying to. "wired" could easily refer to above or below, just continuous current is what matters for this discussion. Why do ask?

Edit: Wait did you think we can electrify all rails? Outside of major cities it's a maintenance and safety nightmare, and a LOT of our freight moves via rail.

This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you!

Guessing that replacing that with a large battery that charges at night is unreasonable due to the torque needed? You'd probably need a battery larger than a train engine to be able to even do a few stops and starts. Which is why electric trains are wired all the time.

If someone knows for sure I'm super curious!

One of my favorite movies that was long before it's time.

Veliciraptor, with philosophy degree

Kid, with much success

Brian, with bad luck
