By Road and Rail?

CygnusXII writes "Now this is a novel approach to Dual Mode Transportation. This is an interesting and refreshing approach, that could revolutionize the transportation industry. BladeRunner Dual Mode Transport, or see the main web page. The innovative vehicle will run on road as well as rail. It is as applicable to freight as to passenger transport. Branch-line infrastructure costs could be at least halved because signalling and points could be largely, if not totally, made redundant."

    I am sure you in America are all, as Linus Torvalds says, litigious bastards. There is movie by name of Blade Runner as well. Good try, but development required yet to do is.

    piss me off. You're just like the longshoremen of Los Angeles harbor. The whole country is racing to the bottom income wise and will come back up from there after things settle out globally. Your unions WILL break. It happened with the grocery unions in california and it will happen with the others. It's not like trains could not be remote controlled and automated with computers. It would be trivial. It's really ridiculous how much you guys are making. It makes me sick.
