Reject Modernity Return to Gilded

I'll pass up on the lack of a standardized work week, the child labor, and the general robber barons, but passenger rail does need to make a comeback.

America currently has all of that... except for passenger rail.
- We do have passenger rail, just not nearly enough. We even have luxury/private passenger rail.
There was a reason its called the guilded age and not the golden age.

Our oligarchs definitely have a lot less style than the ones in the Gilded Age

Our oligarchs surprisingly also have a lot less money that the Gilded Age robber barons.
People think Elon Musk is richest man ever at $194 billion. However adjusted for inflation, here's where the Gilded Age barons stood.
Vanderbilt was $200 billion
Rockefeller was at $440 billion
Carnegie was at over $310 billion
Astor was $120 billion

Not sure if you were inspired by my version or if we just think alike, but either way, nice.

If I was rich I'd love to just live in a private multi-train car and just travel from city to city like a luxury van life. Ideally my friends would also have their own train cars.

I'd roll into a city and hang out there for a few weeks or months (I'm sure I'd be able to throw money at someone to store my train cars) and then when I get bored, I'd hitch my cars to a new train and roll on out to a new city.

Are you sure you're not describing a Snowpiercer prequel?
I know a lady who does that. She pays the railroad company to hitch her private car to their train and travels around. She also owns a Snow-Cat and runs around Mt. Hood with it sometimes.
Where would you park the train? In some shitty depot?
- Depot, rail yard, side track. Something like that.

What about thought-powered propeller-caps?
