That misses the point that the problem is transit created as political footballs. That basically results in grand plans that end-up worthless.
I used to live in Sonoma County. To fight congestion, they created the Smart Train. But through a similar process, the train wound-up a seldom running, expensive medium rail from nowhere to nowhere.
Maybe there's a reason to not put trains where people generally good but you'd have to spell out what that is.

- joe_the_user 6y agoThe mistake of thinking they could go halfway through Marin and extend it later. And the mistake of having the train use a single track for half it's length (once an hour service at most, any time of day).
