For a guy living in northern Jersey to advocate eliminating trains, all those 10+ lines of Jersey Transit trains needs to go! I'm sure the roads of northern Jersey will have no trouble absorbing all those train riders getting into their personal cars!![]()
BTW, the roads are also a "cost center". Better remove them except the ones that survive on tolls.:roll:
NJTRANSIT loses money too, but it has a net positive economic benefit. Conversely, there's no rational defense to many (most) Amtrak lines in America due to the low benefit from these lines. They just flat-out lose money with little economic benefit in return.
That said, my guess is NJTRANSIT could be very profitable were it not run by the government.
