Here’s a high resolution map of the Pacific Electric Railway in 1926–roughly at its peak. The map doubles as an advertisement, touting over 2,700 daily trains.

i think it's an immense fuckup in the timeline that we live in a world where the popular mainstream collector's item for various media is those soulless beady eyed pop vinyl figures and not barbie dolls i can dress up in little outfits

Electric cars are bad for the environment and it's fucking stupid as shit that people keep ignoring that. Making the gas powered pollution machine into a smart phone on wheels is still making it into a different, worse pollution machine. It just now includes even more child slavery, corporate surveillance, DRM, and taxing the poor.
