Where do Americans get those voiceover guys?

Where do they get these crazy Ra-Ra Technologists who think because

Quite. The Croxley Link is physically possible, but ut seems to be anything
but inevitable.

Have they
ever stopped to think how the might rescue passengers from a derailed/

It doesn't matter - no company, individual or government will pour money

could cancel the project.
