Agreed! I feel like Americans can't imagine a future without seeing it somewhere in their home country. They travel to London or to Paris, enjoy the high-speed trains and the frequent metro service, and then come home and keep getting in their cars. So actually experiencing modern electric rail service (albeit not yet high-speed rail) in their own country is a big deal.
