Re: Newest Concepts for Texas High-Speed Rail Stations

Posted by NIMBYkiller on Thu Dec 5 19:59:09 2019, in response to Newest Concepts for Texas High-Speed Rail Stations, posted by Dave on Sun Dec 1 11:51:31 2019.

I'd rather see a more conventional line going actually into College Station (rather than way out in the middle of nowhere) and also into some of the other towns along the way. Also, the station in Houston is way outside of downtown at an abandoned mall. They're sort of doing this the old school way, using the rail line to develop the land around it, although they don't own the land that's going to be developed (or am I wrong?). But it means it will have minimal transit connections and still require a connection to get downtown.

All that being said though, I'd imagine the market between the 2 cities is large enough that Texas Central and conventional rail service could co-exist.
