    Ethiopia is a poor country and yet they’re ahead of America on this.

      Almost everyone is. The Netherlands has more electric rail, and they’re 0.2% the size of the US.

      For context, there was a post the same that said “New world train electrification in colour” with a map of the Americas that had only a tiny bit of colour

      This bellend ☝️ went off on a rant about how the map wasn’t in colour, completely missing the entire point of the map lol

        I checked their link, all our tracks in the USA were orange. No reference to a color guide in their post.

            Maybe if I understood their post in the first place. We got too many train derailments over here, they all scare the fuck out of me.

            Indeed. Might be nice if OP suggested to change what they call ‘Style’ to Electrification when viewing their source link.

            Also might be nice if the map site didn’t just kick me back to Lemmy when I attempt to change it.
