That’s gorgeous!

This is super cool! That video mentions heavy rain could cause some interference, anyone know how significant of a concern that is? Like how heavy of rain has what kind of impact on speeds?

I saw a post recently about a proof-of-concept solar railway in Switzerland

That makes sense that grass is a good option in some climates (especially with the diversity people have pointed out is in the 2nd picture). I guess I’m wondering what would be a good option for arid parts of North America, or other places where grass would be a poor choice?

Maybe I’m seeing a problem where there wasn’t one! I hadn’t noticed the diversity in the second picture. Most of the tram tracks around me have gravel or concrete between them, I’m just dreaming about what could replace that.

sounds like the sort of compost we need to nourish a better society

That’s a helpful nuance! At first I just saw them both as grass = lame

Ooh that sounds nice!
