I didn't write this, but this highlights what I have been saying.
Which of these begging cities do not have a road?

The article mentions "delivering an economic boost to struggling tourist operators" but that's a nonsense, there's minimal chance the cost of providing rail service would be less than the economic boost. So the provision of rail must be presented as what it is; a subsidy. And if we are to provide subsidy, why must it be rail and not not something else?
