    Yep, when people start talking about how rural trains make no sense or are impossible, I immediately think of where my relatives live in Norway. It’s so nice, and I’m jealous.

        We’ve actually regressed in my little US state (South Dakota). My grandma used to talk about taking the train to some little towns. We also used to have more buses and taxis when I was a kid. My parents used to put us on a bus in the summer so we could work in the fields (which I know doesn’t sound like stellar parenting, and I’m not recommending it, but it really was a different time).
