I was searching DMU's for an LIRR topic, and came across this:"Exclusive, fixed rail guideway" is a stupid idea, like every other stupid "exclusive" rail line that has been constructed in the NYC/Northern NJ metro area. Every one of those "trains to the planes" and such should have been constructed as extensions of existing systems using the same equipment and requiring no additional "transfers" and waiting times be introduced. But then why make it convenient or inexpensive to use? Then it might actually BE used by a lot more people - wouldn't want THAT, now would we?!
