Doing rail transit study: need info for college paper
Posted by caboose63 on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 5:39 PM

I am doing a  research proposal on hypothetical light rail transit system for the Bay City-Saginaw-Midland, Michigan area for my political science class The Bureacracy at Saginaw Valley State University. Is there anyone on here that has seen a study or helped on a study for light rail transit or commuter rail transit system? If anyone can help me just email me a copy of any rail study or other info to me at my yahoo email address. Its very similar to my trains user name

Over on the right side of the forum screen under the heading of search community is a window labeled search.  Type matthewsaggie in that window and push the search button.  That will show you a list of forums in which he has posted.  Click on his name and it will take you to his profile.  Click the link that says send him a message.

I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.

I don't have a leg to stand on.
