    An Indian-American businessman who travels to India frequently has this to say: Yes, and our generating capacity is not keeping pace with demand. In addition we are not spending money on maintaining roads, airports, trains etc. We are going to be a third world country soon. On a recent train trip to San Antonio the train had to be stopped several times for track repair. The journey was far worse than the Mumbai-Delhi train trip I took several years ago.
     
  2. how does a train repair equate to the electrical grid?

    I am pretty sure these cyber vilians are up to shutting down the world power grid.
