    I find the hardest issue with trains is getting to the smaller side destinations. I guess you’re still gonna need a small car or bike for that of course

    That’s the same with airports. And actually no big deal if you have working public transport. You arrive in the city center. And then there are local trains, street cars and busses to bring you into every part of the city or to nearby smaller towns

      you can put an airstrip almost anywhere, train tracks cost significantly more.

        You can’t put an international airport anywhere and there may be some flights going to smaller airports from that, but there are no airstrips in your local suburbs?

          look at a map of “airports” around anchorage like this one, and you will see plenty is the vaguely suburp shaped outskirts

            Alaska really is not the area you want to look into.

              It’s where I am, and is by far the largest state.
