And they built 110 miles of rail line in just over 2 years.
They've been talking about light rail/regional transit in Detroit since the 70's as well as discontinuing existing rails?

GM now has...

If you're wearing headphones, walking/crossing the street while updating your Facebook status and get hit it's your own fault.
Pay attention.

Wow! 2 whole years to go 3 miles, in a straight line, on a road that originally had rail running up the middle of the street.
What's next a sodee pop machine, indoor plumbing?

Nothing will happen but keep posting threads about how Detroit will get a mass transit system.

Somewhere in mid 2013 this quote will be the cause of the delay that has been in place since oh... the mid '70's

I'm sensing sarcasm here?
Unless you bought the entire area from the Jeffries to Outer Drive and redeveloped it.

Why not come up with a Regional name like Chicagoland or NYC metro?
Chicagoland encompassing Indiana, Wisconsin and suburbs, NYC encompassing Connecticut, New Jersey and Long Island.

That's the way it SHOULD BE but a once a year event where people drive 30 miles or more then park and take the PM 6 blocks to look at cars!? They have no idea what courtesy means.

These are good except for the back pack rule. Mass transit or other non car transport means you have to carry your stuff in a backpack, stroller, suitcase... but a "real" mass transit has space...

Funny how again they put the smack down when people come into the city but on a Tuesday afternoon in Feb. you could film a porno on the thing and no one would care or see. I mean the entire system is...

It took me years to get it. Light rail/mass transit in Detroit is like the Cubs winning the World Series.

I wish them well.

Not to put anyone down but

The suburbs, Madison Hgts. closed it's incinerator years ago, and there's enough steam heat coming out of the vents and sewers under Detroit to heat how much?

Well it's good to hear that DTE is not letting things get behind I hope that means they are reading the meters inside the apartments every month, I got stuck with someone else's bill after moving...

When I lived in Detroit I was on a plan, it was the same amount all year based on an average. Yeah it seemed strange to get a $30 gas bill in July but it kept the heat on.

Plus if you have an old...

A car is more efficient in terms of getting you to a destination that a train won't go.
Trains aren't made for 5 mile trips to the grocery store or the mall but in a major city with mass transit...

If I remember Detroit was built as an affordable single family home city and without decent mass transit and the auto being primary transportation a driveway was necessary so now rows could be built....

You've got Greektown and I used to go to Zoots, before it was clothing store, before it was a head shop.

It was only supposed to be an Amtrak line and if it's like the whole Detroit light rail that they've been trying to get built since the 70's :rolleyes: never gonna happen.

Cleveland, Cincinnati,...

I'm smarmy for sure and left Michigan in 2003, NYC, Columbus Ohio and back to Illinois where I lived as a kid. Chicago is the midwest city.
