#2: BackOnTrack (Syracuse Commuter Rail)

created 29 weeks ago

The time is right for us to revive Syracuse's dead commuter rail system, "OnTrack." "OnTrack" existed from 1992 to 2008, where it ended operations due to low ridership, a lack of funding, and issues with freight railroad companies. But today, we're going to be "BackOnTrack." Using the former rail line (as well as some new rail lines), let's bring a nice and realistic metro system to this city. All lines are at-grade (except for a part of the Crosstown Line) and have their dedicated right-of-way.
