It's interresting that they seem to be reviving the really old privitised streetcar transit concept used in LA. I.e. Build transit lines to get people to move in the middle of nowhere and boost the values of properties the railway operator owns. It could very well work; there have been numerous very successful precedents, just not in recent years.

BTW, they are budgetting 900M$ for rail rehab and would let the cities pay for the stations. Seems reasonable to me.
