I live in Pasadena, Md and I take the Green line into DC during rush hour about 3 times a week.
I think that they should make the MARC train parking lots bigger and run more regularly during rush hour. I think that would be a better usage of money.
The problem with the bus is that you can get stuck in traffic for hours on 295 or I-95 trying to get to either Greenbelt or BWI. And I agree that most white collar workers would not ride a bus.
You are probably right. But one problem is that even if people do know about MARC, usually they are not willing to use it. So I think there's is a huge need to have more advertisement and encouragement done regarding MARC.

That's why rail is the way to go.
