Anyway, I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to find people who have to sit on the clusterfuck that is 422 everyday morning/afternoon that wouldn't mind hopping on a train instead.
As for your last question, public (rail) transportation needs to serve population centers, whether they are well serviced by highways or not.

yeah, I suppose the calculation of "expected time savings" is where my question is answered. All other things being equal, a route where the existing infrastructure is a highway would have less time savings w/ public transit than a route where the existing infrastructure is a rural road.
