  1. Well since Argentina elected Milei and he is staunchly anti-BRICS, that is one less country joining BRICS.

  2.  @guydreamr  Because the technology at the time limited America to doing that and life moved at a slower pace. Passenger rail unless it was an extremely busy route and/or government subsidies paying for mail to be transported were natural money losses that could be written off from freight revenue. Technology moved forward to where you could reach the West Coast from the East Coast in 6 hours vs. 3-4 days by train. Even the fastest train nowadays would still take an entire day to traverse the country vs. a few hours on a plane.
