Bham1982, higher speed rail to/from Chicago has been brought up in this thread, in light of connecting that higher speed rail to regional transit like the M-1 and so forth. "Connecting" Detroit to Chicago is a hell of a lot of money to benefit... Chicago [[if anyone). That's my point. SE Michigan is not more attractive to live/work if it's easier/cheaper/faster to get to Chicago. If anything, even more young alums will bail from SE Michigan with an uptick in travel to Chicago, after they get more exposure to how a functioning major city looks.
