Huh? Outside New York, and to a lesser extent places like Philadelphia and Boston, commuting on a train counts for almost nothing. And given today's work patterns, which often mean commuting from one suburb to another rather than to a CBD, you couldn't build enough trains to make it work. How could modern Atlanta or Dallas exist without cars?
