Yes. This project looks feasible on a map, but the fact is, there is not enough point-to-point traffic among any of these cities to justify a de novo rail project.

It might work if freight was included, but that would probably require change in regulations, and of course would incur the resistance of the trucking industry. The relief of traffic on I-71 however would be a big improvement.
