Most employers in large cities will likewise subsidize both parking garages and mass transit passes. Not all of it, but a decent amount.

Who will pay for a train ride from Dallas through College Station to Houston? Well, lots of Aggies during winning seasons.

There is a bus service called Vonlane that takes a full size bus, puts in first class seating and drives from Love Field to downtown Houston.

But I understand that it is only private money.

“Well, lots of Aggies during winning seasons.”

To keep a train running, you need a certain level of ridership every day, week in and week out.
