Joe Biden's train station!

On my way from Raleigh to NY by Amtrak, I stopped in Wilmington overnight to attend a Rhiannon Giddens concert. It was wonderful.

Here's the plaque naming the station after Joe!

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

The station is well maintained. It's also staffed with 3 police officers and a police dog. Maybe standard because Joe still travels by train?

such a great alternative transportation that never expanded in this country.
highways and the auto industry are such death traps.

Instead of wondering what idiot was going to run into me, I could just relax and read or text my family. I do a lot of driving.
