I cannot think of any more efficient way of doing that except legislative enactment, which is how we got here. By the way, the railroads are thriving, interestingly enough on freight! It is passenger service that is barely alive. Anyway, it is too hard to make sure it is all fair. For example, the railroads were the beneficiaries of a lot of cheap land in the first place. Shipping is the beneficiary of the Army Corps of Engineers, which has created or modernized canals, and dredged harbors. Airplanes have been helped by the provision of subsidized airports and the system of federal air traffic controllers. How to disentangle is all?
