    We'll see how much of a model it is soon enough. I'm optimistic in the meantime. #TrainTwitterhttps://twitter.com/RichardAPeddie/status/865691143455068162 …

        My primary concern is they only cite three stops over a 70-mile corridor. If they plan to add more later, ok, but if not? Trouble ahead.

        A corridor this linear, this dense, and this congested is *optimal* for rail but you need frequently placed stops...

        ...and high frequency service so that you maximize the number of trips possible along the route. Worried that would slow down travel times?

        That's what rapid and express services are for! A limited express on this corridor might make just three stops--sensible!--other kinds, more

        The concerns floated in the article about the Orlando extension are moot. 2-3 years is a blink of an eye in construction terms...

        ...and adding mileage for its own sake is irrelevant. The Orlando extension matters because it grants access to a major destination!

        Consequently it would be important *even if* the extension was only a small amount of the total planned mileage

        The best thing in this article is their emphasis on RIDERSHIP as their core source of revenue, instead of real estate.

        The best private railways in Japan all have real estate ventures, but make more money from passengers. Glad Brightline gets this!

        God willing, brightline will also demonstrate that they know how to generate ridership. Eager to find out! #TrainTwitter

        That was pretty informative. Interesting how they are reclaiming cargo tracks. Makes me think of that GIF from the other day.
