citykid09 Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 It's bad that they are not having as many recks because it will make them think that it is ok to keep building ground level rail, when it could be much better above or below ground.

Talbot Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 The more wrecks there are, even more less likely we get funding. And we're already having a hell of a time getting that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather the smash-up-the-sleek-train marathon come to a stop so that we can turn things around long enough to get more funding for expansion.
