Yeah trains are a massive civil engineering project. You have to commission a bunch of studies of everything from archaeology to soil and water to route efficiency, go through several levels of engineering designs, obtain a lot of connected land, then you have to build the thing including preparing the land to not settle too much under the weight of a train because soil is a particulate fluid. And every step of the way everyone is mad it’s taking so long and costing so much.
