Meaning they’d have to be profitable.

Kasich is looking all over for cuts. The only way to cut business taxes is to cut the budget, not to increase it.

75 has more truck traffic than 71. They actually wanted to stop the train in Middletown. Bad enough getting off in downtown Dayton, but Middletown pretty much made the case against this fiasco.

Normal passenger trains are far more efficient than high-speed rail if you factor in maintenance and safety. Normal trains are very fuel-efficient transportation where you have a network of towns within about an hour of each other. Take a ride on the Bergen line in NJ. Normal trains, decently clean, nice ride, very popular, go from town to town or all the way to nyc.
If only the gov’t would get out of all mass transit and let private companies (U.S. only) own the infrastructure and other private companies operate.
