There are several points that I am in agreement with, concerning the R-train, and its usage in south Brooklyn.Yes, there are clearly several issues with the MTA's finances and issues related to its workforce. There are issues of history, ridership trends, the amount of options on certain transit lines, etc. There are other issues that have not been talked about. Then there is also the idea that some of these "transit route schemes" basically has a snowball's chance in hell of ever being enacted. Yes, the orange M-train is an exception, but a rare one. So why have a discussion about the "new idea of a transit route scheme"? One, to have something to talk about. Two, to share ideas of "what if" and that might work or not work in the real world. Three, to briefly think about what you would do IF you were in charge. Fourth, to be truly glad that you're not actually in charge when all kinds of indescribable junk hits the fan when things go wrong. Fifth, to know that somebody somewhere is interested in some of the same stuff that you're interested in. Sixth, to be able to argue and fuss over transit stuff! Let the petty bickering continue!
