QuietAndEffective, The workers are doing what they're being paid to do, but their leaders are clueless, and they are mismanaging the money.  If you are so convinced that rail is a worthwhile project, you should act on your convictions by donating money to it in an amount that shows how much you believe in it.  Everyone who thinks it is worthwhile should do that.  I would be surprised if the total of all of the contributions exceeds 37 cents.
