The only places it needs to stop at are Tysons Corner and Dulles. I couldn't care less about the intermediate stops.

If you were to tell that to the folks that are getting taxed to build the line, They would tell you we want no part of it.

The project would have never gotten off the ground without the intermediate stops. This project, contrary to all the propaganda, was never about providing rail transit primarily to Dulles Airport. The thing that got the ball rolling was the detour through Tysons Corner. The idea of detouring through Tysons Corner was not even in the minds of the folks that approved the original ARS (Adopted Regional System) 1968. The passengers using the station at the airport will be a fraction of the total number of boardings generated by the line.
