Reading about the Great Depression & 1 thing stood out:
During this period electric street railways were more dominant & later usurped by motorized cars (oil). Electrification in the US reached its max of 3,100 miles (5,000 km) in the late 1930s.
Are we back to the future?

Btw, this is what the electric railway system looked like in LA in the 1920s - the best in the world at the time & that was then destroyed!!!

Of course we yanked it out for this, yes, LA free way (it's called that because of no tolls although if u use google map it will route u through some toll high ways) to SD.
Madness. Now we're trying to build the subway/railway that's no where close to what we got in the 1920s!🤦🏻♀️
