Ohio governor says rail project needs $250M
Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland says the state could restore passenger rail service with $250 million in federal stimulus money. The governor also estimates it would cost $10 million a year to operate the service, less than 1 percent of Ohio’s $7.6 billion, two-year transportation budget. Strickland says the plan would create up to 6,000 construction jobs and other service-related jobs at train stations.
