[QUOTE="Garuda, post: 1267697, member: 13693"] So you wanted a bunch of small rail conglomerates that formed a patchwork of rails spanning the entire country instead of one big railway like Amtrak? Was there ever a thing as proper suburban planning? I know it was built for the automobile but only to have three or four roads go through and the rest abruptly stop in cul-de-sacs or just loop around is just asking for a transportation nightmare. First ring suburbs are better off though as all the streets were just extended out from the big city in most cases, allowing you to walk to the retail areas instead of having to drive around a large dividing wall and across a four lane road. As for the best urban planning, the key might be to never deviate from the original plan for the city in the first place.
