Hey Walker, you're always ahead of me on this stuff, but did you see The NY Times article on Columbus/Cincy Streetcars? It was more about Cincy then us, but I thought I'd share. Here ya go! :-)

Someone posted it here:

It was also emailed to me by a dozen different people. ;)
I didn't post it up on the front of CU since it's mainly an article about Cincy. It's cool that Columbus got a nod at the end on a national level, but it doesn't really offer us locals anything new.

Ha ha, I figured it was already brought up but I thought I'd let you know anyway. Does this happen a lot? You get the same story like, oh, 20 times? :-P

I think it would be super fantastic to have a rail system from Covington/Downtown Cincy to Columbus to Cleveland!!!!
Could you imagine if it was super fast commuter train if people had to do business,like so many do and have to cover the state how much time and money this would save. I wish for it just so that it would be easier to see the people I have to see in Cincy and because I would like to go to Cleveland for events and not drive--just hop off a train and walk. I love living like that.

Enzo, it's called the 3C, and it could be up and running in a few years:

I haven't read the article yet, but do they mention Cincy mainly because of its failed attempt at an underground subway system?
