I think it's simply because most Buffalonians own cars, would rather store them at the (free!, safe) parking at Depew, and take advantage of the additional train (LSL) whose evening run is at a far more convenient arrival time from NYC than any of the other trains. A trip to NYC has the maximum time available by taking 280 down and 49 up. There's also a healthy crowd getting *on* 49 at Buffalo to go west.All of these problems are solved via the Buffalo Central Terminal plan. The developer wants to build it into shopping space; a shopping mall with garage that also allows train riders to park (with access to all 4 round trips) is a slam dunk. |
