Although I tend to post here about airline trivia my original qualification is as a transport planner. And long ago (1970s) when at University we planned and quick-costed a train line which did (if my memory holds):
Through from the North East corridor at Rahway
Newark Airport
Newark Downtown
Jersey City
World Trade Centre
42 St
125 St
La Guardia Airport
Jamaica
JFK Airport
Onto the LIRR at Lynbrook
If you know the RER Line A across Paris, it was of that style. Full sized trains every 3 minutes. Airport stations under the terminals. Quite a lot in tunnel.
We did plans, outline costs, predicted demand, engineering aspects, return on investment, everything.
Three of us designed the whole thing in two week. It looked quite good. What a shame .....</font>
Apparently you left out whiny tax consumers who jump at the opportunity to complain about anything. Otherwise you would still be working on it.
