“Light rail is actually a low-capacity system, and the streetcar is simply irrelevant.

That is why many cities pulled up the streetcar rails back in the 50s and 60s. Now the Austin Silly Council is trying to add light rail from downtown to ABIA.

Its Austin what did you expect? Thank God most of the libs hang out there and haven’t spread out through out the state.
I watch the light rail every morning in Dallas block the road to my job at 6:32 every morning. Two trains with perhaps 6 folks on each. Strong showing!
