3C train - Cost, Concern, Credibility

This article from the Enquirer in mid-February highlights several of the concerns over the 3C train. As I have mentioned on this blog before, I am worried about the 3C train. Mainly the cost and the economic feasibility. This editorial highlights many of the points I have mentioned before. We need to make sure this something we can afford in the short term and the long term. Furthermore, if this train is coming to Cincinnati it needs to be coming to Union Terminal. Then perhaps there will be a need for a streetcar to get people from Union Terminal to downtown central. The funding for the train was approved with Lunken airport as the temporary station and Ohio will have to appeal to the federal government to change that. Write to your legislators and call City Council. This station needs to be at Union Terminal or at least in the vicinity.
