I really agree here. Of course more efficient and environment-friendly is the hope, but public transportation is a huge win over moter vehicles

Of course trains are better than cars. Of course these trains are better than no trains. Any progress in this area is welcome (and frankly unexpected in the States). But nothing changes the fact that there is nothing modern about these trains, which was all they stated.
