I didn’t know we were all aboard about any kind of trains.

Love electric trains. We have some here, and they are excellent. Love my ebike and love efoils, too. Big electricity enjoyer, here.

Electric might finally be the "in" we needed the whole time. It's a different world now.

The instant torque sold me. The best parts of ICE vehicles, but pennies to recharge and no worries of carbon monoxide poisoning. I hope electric boats become more of a thing. The exhaust can wash back aboard smaller boats, and it's a bit sickening to breathe in.
