      A carrier pigeon seems outdated and unreliable. There are important things such as medication that would need to be reliably delivered to people.

      Could you elaborate on what a point express is? A quick Google search didn’t get me any helpful english-language answers.

        from what i can gather, a point express is an express train that goes from one station to another without stopping

        Typo of pony express my bad!

        As for carrier pigeon I would say it’s not that outdated if you use it for letters. My understanding is that carrier pidgeon tend to be highly accurate with delivery.
