Transportation systems lose money. Who would pay? Without Government support, most transportation systems would close down today. Government support for a bus/train or whatever in TV----forget it. This might look good but when you peel back the layers it becomes less and less practical.

I would rather see a horse and carriage around Brownwood by a private entrepreneur on a Saturday night than a bus with about as many passengers (as a horse with a carriage) going back and forth between the various Squares wasting gas and money.
