being against getting federal money for train from B. R. to new orleans seemed like a dumb game to me.

It still is a dumb idea.

Ain’t nobody gonna take a train to go between two cities that you can drive faster between once you account for the stops along the train route. Then the train dumps you on Loyola Ave. a good walking distance to the dome or you can take advantage of a stinky RTA bus or streetcar. By the time you add train fare, bus fare, and the extra time needed to get there to make your connections. It is cheaper to drive there yourself.

Parking and security of your car is another issue and a different argument depending on who is running the city.
