This administration again seems to do things without thinking things through. They are spending money building this out with NO IDEA if people will actually use it.
There must be reasons why rail passenger travel died in the USA last century. What makes this administration think they can revive it?
I hope people do use it so the money is not wasted.
It seems to me that if you want to get there fast and have to deal with getting local transportation, one would choose the fastest way.
If you are not in a hurry then I would think one would prefer to have your own car, filled with "supplies" for your trip and useful for local travel when you get to your destination.
As I said I hope the money spent is worthwhile, I just think it probably won't be used much and we will be stuck with subsidizing it for the next century.
