How long will it take to run from Atlanta to Savannah?
Can it, including all stops and other overhead, beat 4.75 hours from 30041 to dowtown Savannah? And do so by enough to put up with limited baggage, security hassles (i.e.: No CCW), and other negatives?
People in the South are more tied to their cars. Who is going to take a train FROM Atlanta to Savannah or Macon and not have a car when you get there? Most places in the South aren’t made to get around without a car...even the biggest cities like Atlanta.
I guess there is the person here or there that would ride, get picked up for a meeting, stay 2 hours and go back...but not enough to build this thing.
Maybe for games or events in Atlanta, if the train stopped right at the Georgia Dome or Phillips Arena they might ride it once in awhile.
