The basic case against the 3C line was that there is little or no traffic outside the immediate vicinities of the cities themselves. It essentially follows I-71, which is mostly used by trucks. I have driven it many times (over many years) and been struck at how few cars I see, as opposed to convoys of trucks one after the other. If the trucking companies want to use the RR, CSX will be happy to accommodate them already.

75 has more truck traffic than 71. They actually wanted to stop the train in Middletown. Bad enough getting off in downtown Dayton, but Middletown pretty much made the case against this fiasco.
