Joe Biden's exit from the presidential race is bad for trains, and possibly the 21st century in general.
Biden as President would have supported more passenger trains. In fact, the day after he announced he was not running (that would be today) he said on radio, "I spend 80% of my life on trains." He was joking about the percentage, but not about how much he rides trains.
He surely would have moved America forward with transportation.
Last week I rated the Democratic candidates and their 21st Century (versus last century) views as:
Bernie Sanders, Yes - 21st century
Joe Biden, ? - Not sure, but he has potential
Hilary Clinton, No - she is last century.
So Biden might have been a 21st Century President in other ways as well.
While past peak up north last week, the woods were still a magical yellow.
