Tax dollars are going to cover that stretch. Too many people are going to lose money to not go beg the feds to pay for it.


If the Feds want to use it fir passenger service then they should upgrade it.

Jump on train to pelicans game get beered on the way and come back safely to an awaiting Uber home sounds pretty good

And obviously a trip to Nola for any day off this way is appealing I just hope it’s not forever before it happens

Well, I actually would use it. I'm in a white collar job, regularly go to NO from BR and back and could use the time traveling to work, do emails, etc. rather than drive. It would have to have a strong wifi.

So technically someone could murder somebody in Baton Rouge
Hop the train and murder someone in New Orleans
Sounds like a good plan

Plans call fir the train to leave BR at 7:00am and return to BR at 5:00 pm. It would work for an afternoon game.

I'm sure there's ample funding included for onboard social workers/conflict resolution personnel.
