Great idea, but where will the troops go to?

Rumsfield talked about this last week. The Austians blocked a train full of our troops the other day. He wants a rail line that will take our troops and armor to Italy without interuption. Maybe someone can post a map.

There is only one viable rail route to get to Italy without passing through neutral Switzerland or Austria or hostile France. You would have to go from Hungary through Croatia (a German puppet) to Slovenia to Trieste. The other rail alternative looks like Hungary, Bulgaria, Greece.
