NO infrastructure is self supporting
Telephone? Electric power? Or are those suddenly not infrastructure?

There's also a matter of comparative cost. That gets to the economic efficiency issue. The transportation you favor is ENORMOUSLY expensive. So expensive that very little of it can be afforded. Unless you're willing to go back to a 19th century transportation system, you HAVE to have roads and bridges. You DON"T have to have empty trains that cost hundreds of million per mile.
