[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] To expand upon my immediate thoughts of how a publicly funded intrastate Miami-Jax service could look, we first have to consider the valid objection to the AAF initiative of that "they're going to tear through our town and we can't ride it", in that any service had best be prepared to stop at least once in every county it goes through. This is because it is my understanding that, if there is to be State level funding, Florida law requires any county desiring rail service must impose a tax dedicated to "a fair share". Towards that end ever wonder why Tri Rail has not expanded Northward into Martin County? Well, that's Fox News watching, train hating country up there and they are not about to impose the necessary tax. I'm sure one will find the Sun Rail service area dictated by that same maxim. Nevertheless, should publicly funded Jax-Mia intrastate service ever move forth, here is my proposal for stops: Dade: Miami (MCS), Hollywood Broward: Deerfield Palm Beach: Delray, West Palm Martin: Stuart St. Lucie: Fort Pierce Indian River: Vero Beach Brevard: Melbourne Orange: Cocoa (Beeliner bus Orlando) Volusia: Daytona Beach Flagler: Palm Coast St. Johns: St. Augustine Duval: Jacksonville (JT), Moncrief (Amtrak) I know that all of this is moot; after all, AAF will soon be "up and running" :eek: :eek: :eek: [/QB][/QUOTE]
