The newer reactors are designed (supposedly) to be able to last their full 30 year life without refueling.
Box cars- that's an interesting idea. True, 500 hp won't push a loaded train car up steep hills very fast, but it would darned sure help a significant amount. It doesn't have to be "all or nothing." I wonder how much the price would drop if there were a dedicated plant manufacturing solar panels for ever single box car in the nation. Also, the beauty of solar panels is they don't wear out- so if they were built robustly enough, they could be transplanted to new cars when the old cars wear out.- or sold for other applications, like housing perhaps?
