They were actually, you know, many of the designs in Robots were modeled off of streamlined locomotives from the 1930s.

Yeah. That's a European one.

Yeah. That's a European one.

I can tell you exactly what that was all about. Where do you look out of it?

Oh. I'll tell you exactly what was going on. So remember how earlier today I told you that the railroads were monopolistic and kept price gouging?

Until the United States government started to subsidize the interstate highway system? Yeah. And then ridership on the railroads tanked? Mm-hmm. When it tanked, they were like, well, what do we do?

They would test oranges to see which ones produce the most liquid. So that way they could economize their orange juice maximally on their trains. Okay. They would test, like, everything. Like, ridiculous levels. Just to save, like, like, portions of pennies. I can see why this failed. Yeah. Oh, it saved them money, theoretically, but, yeah. Uh... Anyway...
