We'll locate investors, stick-handle authorizations, and we'll stand up a railway.

Startups make deals with incumbents all the time. Microsoft's success largely stemmed from making a deal with IBM. Google's success started by getting a search engine deal with yahoo. Your niche is apparently that you have a genius marketing strategy to convince tens of thousands of people to relocate to rural areas. Why not focus on that and outsource the railway operations end of the business?
