Funny, but 'chemtrail" proponents seem to lack any actual facts or proof.

So there is no byproduct called water in a contrail?
Are you saying it may be more pollution then water from
petroleum products as part of the combustion product which is another whole category of chemicals?

That is also confusing - I am saying there is nothing that is a by product OF a contrail because a contrail does not actually produce anything at all - so it has no by products.
A contrail IS the visible water from combustion of hydrocarbons - is that what you mean?
I think you are a little confused as to terminology perhaps - that is my problem here.
The products of combustion are illustrated by this, courtesy of Swiss Air:
As you can see, the major product is CO2, Water 2nd, and various other pollutants distant 3rd from there.

Common sense tells me some country's chose electric trains over planes to move the masses, now is that because of cost, pollution, etc?
A railway electrification system supplies electrical energy to railway locomotives and multiple units as well as trams so that they can operate without having an on-board prime mover. There are several different electrification systems in use throughout the world. Railway electrification has many advantages but requires significant capital expenditure for installation
