But if people have all these public transport options it’ll hurt the car and oil industry.

So what I’m saying is there isn’t a chance in hell any of this will happen in our lifetimes.

At least with Intercity, it's the Airlines and the long distance bus services that would lose the most. Regional Rail / Public Transit its the auto industry, but that impact isn't as strong or damaging. I wish PA was like Virginia which just recently bought up most of the busy freight corridors for 5 billion and plans on expanding Amtrak services along with speeding up the lines... North Carolina and Maryland might do something similar in the not to distant future along with Massachusetts and Maine...
