Baltimore's non-subway commuter rail (MARC) Connects it with another large city, Washington DC. MARC mainly connects communities to DC so that peopl ewho work in DC can get there (Explaining why no commuter trains run on weekends). Weather or not you should look into a commuter line really depends on where it goes and why its gong there. if it is a quick inexpensive way to get to work in a city that would take twice as long to drive to on a busy freeway, where a large amount of people would rather u8se the trains than the road, That would work. the local MARC station has over 500 parking spaces for a fairly small city, and it is filled up every weekday. Population dosn't matter, the amount of people that could and would regularly use it does.
