I think the transit currently is the worst that it has ever been in Detroit, for the exception of the new transit center.

But that is about to change. It has to. I don't think we should use the Dequinder cut for commuter rail. The tracks to the northern burbs run through new center and eventually to the Michigan Central Station [[where nearly all tracks lead). Also, I don't think commuter rail is a substitute for light-rail or mass transit, but a compliment to it. Our transit system even as it is [[just buses and a downtown people mover) would be much more effective if we had commuter rail transit connecting the burbs/exurbs/satellite cities to the inner city.
