This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

someone compared efficiency and long distance trains are more efficient, but that's it.

Further proof that trains are the ultimate form of transportation. But we all knew this. Choo choo!

Bring back trains so we can have real suburbs, where you can live in a small town and be a 30 to 45 minute train ride from a city center.

Bike and train could mean never having to deal with owning a car ever again.

I live in Montreal, the REM is nowhere near where people live so people end up driving to it anyway, it doesn't transfer from the Montreal Metro or buses and it's more expensive.

I honestly believe the REM exists so that our scumbag conservative provincial government can point at it and say "See? Trains are a failure!", while he cuts public transport funding again.
