> freight

I know the US primarily uses diesel for its trains, but have you ever been outside of the US before?

Freight can also mean shipping, I’m not sure electric ships are a thing yet.

		yes. And if you look at costs: - $0.005 to $0.01 per ton-mile (for ocean ships) - $0.05 to $0.08 per ton-mile (for diesel trucks) - $0.015 – $0.025 per ton-mile (for electric trucks) - $0.007 per ton-mile (for diesel trains) - $0.002 per ton-mile (for electric trains) - $0.002 – $0.004 per ton-mile (electric ships, not widely deployed yet due to battery weight)
