A devils advocate post here: I am suspicious at this recent "dooming" over the Ohio Train Derailment, especially since the MSM never seem to shut up about it nowadays after ignoring it for so long.
It is a deja vu moment to the Chyna virus. At first, silence from the MSM, then 24/7 coverage of the Chyna virus to drive everyone insane with fear and accepting of the clot shot.
I wonder what tyrannical policy the government has cooked up to take advantage of this disaster that warrants sudden and constant media coverage?
Just to follow that train of thought (LEL at the pun, heheh)
I saw a lot of weird video of dilapidated trains and rails in China about ten years ago. Since the Ohio disaster, some video, remarkably similar to the Chinese ones, appeared, several times on this site, of a train picking its way through a twisted mess of rails. It stated that this was in Ohio, and I was like - yeah right, I have seen this before, only it was in China.
Then, China started building the highspeed Maglev railways all over China, and further afield, and those weird videos disappeared, to be replaced with shiny new trains. I don't think that the wonky rail video is a coincidence. I am not saying that there wasn't foul play in the Ohio disaster, and I am also not saying that it was XX who perpetrated it. I don't know. However, there are no coincidences either, and I am drawing on memory.
I have since seen some plans for a connection of a Maglev rail-system to be extended through a tunnel in the Bering Straight, into the American continent. For example: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/china-russia-canada-america-traintunnel-link-paul-goncharoff. Another coinkidnk, in this context, is Elon's investment in the Boring company.
Those high-speed rails will bring trade and travel speed, and comfort, to many millions of people, however, any railways project comes at a human and political price when they are built. for context see the Railway Man https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2058107/
some thoughts:
An Asia/America connection will defeat the Naval supremacy that the USA enjoys in the Pacific. Trade routes will no longer need the high seas, and therefore will not need protection from piracy.
The existing ports will have less traffic - note how this is consistent with how California is banning diesel trucks, and how container ships were blockaded during Covid.
Politically, it will be seen as a Chinese, or Russian invasion, when engineers familiar with the building process appear in the USA and Canada. Tensions between the superpowers is already high, so I don't think that's going to go well.
Furthermore, Chinese are particularly well-versed on the building of rail. Chinese labor was used on the Trans-American railway, and were particularly good with the use of explosives, and they were also used for the Trans-Siberian one. The latter was the fastest rail ever laid. However, the importation of said workers will cause problems for American workers who will protest the foreign workers, which will be another sore point.
Highspeed rail will be faster than driving trucks, or even flying. So, those industries will also be undermined - more political pressure.
Very compelling! Thsnk you for taking the time to lay it out for us. There is actually an interesting recent movie about the post apocalyptic world where the survivors live on a train and have something of a caste system.. it was pretty awful... but a very good movie and goes perfectly with what you are describing
