    I know FDR is supposed to be a sleek diesel train, but…

    [Train] Electrification in the US reached its maximum of 3,100 miles (5,000 km) in the late 1930s.[9]

    God I fucking hate the missed opportunities in this country

    This art style looks very familiar. From another cartoon/comic? Anyone feel the same way or have any ideas?

      Reminds me of The Little Toaster That Could if it was drawn by Dave Fleischer.

        I think that’s what it was, such a classic. Thank you!
