Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

On Youngstown-Cleveland.

Cleveland is a fairly large city of half a million. As such, I think more stops should be added, preferably at transport interchanges, rather than using a uniform 5-mile-radius rule. I am thinking of two:

  • Next to the E.79th stop on the Red Line (which, among others, would serve as a distributor to the Northeastern part of the town).
  • Next to the West Boulevard-Cudell stop on the Red Line (this would also be a link in case an all-stopped passenger service is introduced on the line to Toledo).

[Note: "intercity" for an all-stopper service sounds strange to European ears, because "InterCity" is a brand for express trains here :-)]

As long as it stops at Cleveland downtown HSR, which connects to both Ohio Hub services and Cleveland's light rail, at Puritas, either at the HSR or the Red Line platform, and Hopkins Airport at the Red Line station, I would not venture to speculate where Cleveland residents would want the balance of the stations.

Since the project has to get by American ears for funding, I'll stick to Express and Express Limited for describing any conventional rail station skippers that use the corridor.


I've been accused of being a Marxist, yet while Harpo's my favourite, it's Groucho I'm always quoting. Odd, that.
