It is common that a train commuter monorail be a wise choice for the metropolitan community. Similarly, large cities in Southeast Asia. Understandably, the effective cross the train tracks downtown and residential areas able to deliver hundreds of people quickly. Imagine if all the passengers rely on private vehicles. Loss of course.
In State Merlion where I look for a bite of rice, SMRT, although often packed with passengers, was able to make it easier to go from one place to another. Safe and cheap. So also when traveling in the land of Siam, the BTS makes me easily explore the city of Bangkok. Clean and orderly facilities.
Neighbor country also has Monorails. Not good indeed. I learned my lesson boarded the monorail in Kuala Lumpur. But it is clear to its citizens, the monorail can be a mode of mass commuter. I heard that Manila was also have Metrostar Express.

I caught the suggestion that there is an alternative or additional end to the tracks on East First Street and Washington is.
With all the talk about high speed rail between Madison and Milwaukee, I missed the report that identified the best place for the local item to locate. I know a lot of discussion about the Regional Airport is Dane County.
I guess the airport heading three advantages:
1. The passengers of the high speed rail can go to a local rail system is already shifting passengers from the Madison campus / UW from downtown to the airport.
2. It gets the rail passengers to their connecting flights from Madison.
3. It facilitates the train on the twin cities by not moving into the city to distract.
That is good as the best scenario, given the needs of the passengers of the high speed rail. I curious as to what passengers want. Can someone lead me the study that the destination for the majority of statements from passengers and the needs of potential passengers shows? How realistic is the local rail system to downtown Madison from the airport? Is the passenger demands on the high speed rail to the airport? How realistic is it that the train to the twin cities in the decade will work after the Milwaukee-Madison route is completed?
