Yes, this will be a challenge. Still, I think there is a place for this. In fact, they could add a third spread out city (SA) and make a nice triangle out of the route.Houston and DFW are too spread out for this to work.
They you pay for it.Yes, this will be a challenge. Still, I think there is a place for this. In fact, they could add a third spread out city (SA) and make a nice triangle out of the route.
I visited Denver a few years back and they have a nice light rail system around the city. We got from the house in the burbs to downtown in very little time. They could combine the two and take care of much of the spread issue. It also cuts down on hydrocarbon emissions and relieves you of a parking hassle downtown.
Not all of these projects have to turn out like the CA circus.
You answered your own question.What is it about trains that makes liberals love them so?? Every single one loses money - and the construction pumps millions of taxpayer dollars into the pockets of crooks and politicians.
This is so true, having lived in California for a couple of years, I watched the light rail system getting installed in Sacramento. It was a complete waste of taxpayer money. In Tuscon where I've lived as well, their light rail system is a total bust. These are leftie wet dreams that never realize any profit and will burden taxpayers for ever. They are exclusively virtue signaling tools.And why do we need this? Is there really that much commuter traffic between Houston and Dallas?
I see a huge waste of time, money and resources.
Yet many may like to get OUT for a while.Not to reflect badly on Houston but I don't want to go there.
Maybe after Sweetwater-Abilene?Why isn't there a bullet train between Lubbock and Amarillo?
Field Creek/Pontotoc?Maybe after Sweetwater-Abilene?
Like those big buses with one person on board.No railroad can exist without a lot of your tax money. The bullet train will be one of the best examples of the misuse of federal funds. No way it can come close to paying for it's own existence. Another joke on the American people.
