Actually, no. Relative transit usage is almost entirely a function of congestion, and has almost nothing to do with "transit choices". Given there is no congestion in this directional, transit makes little sense.
Moreover, commuter rail is overwhelmingly a white collar professional-oriented service, and that's the least professional-oriented corridor radiating out from Detroit. It's essentially the worst corridor possible [[and I'm not sure even the best, the Grand Trunk Line, makes any sense, given it shut down for lack of ridership when Detroit had far more jobs than today).
