      What about trains underground?

      Maybe even powered by electricity.

      But it’s an even worse version because with it the traffic on rail networks would explode, the complexity of the unit that moves everything increases (as well as cost), and it pisses away all the efficiency trains get from economies of scale. A 2 mile train will always be more efficient than this crap. And that’s all before you consider the safety nightmare that this would cause.
