Jun. 12th, 2005 10:50 pmOkay, 20 miles. All the way up to BWI Airport.
Ether way, it's going to follow the MARC Camden line to Savage. It'll then follow two routes:
1. Go over to NSA and Ft. Meade proper, before going up to BWI.
2. Go over to Arundel Mills Mall, and then over to BWI.
I cannot see stopping directly at BWI. It's unattainable in it's current status -- the only one is the BWI Light Rail station. No idiot would try again to park a railcar service at the station itself.
So let us rethink this.
Extend Metro from Greenbelt. Stretch the Green Line, or more likely install a new line, at Greenbelt. Go forward on the Camden line towards Savage. Turn at rt 32, hit the edge of NSA, then up 295, glance Arundel Mills, and head straight to the Penn Line (the AMTRAK line) and end at the BWI Rail station.
The main problems are Laurel and Murikurk.
