He brought it up as an example of growing intrastate travel, not the merits of the project moneywiseBut it is fair to respond to the comments about its usage with comments about that usage on a "cost/benefit" basis - that it cost too much for the benefits accrued. Otherwise someone can get in "one free shot" by posting something off topic and no one can disagree and point out a different angle.
Rail proponents press on with call to build MOMMore at..
Plan has support in Monmouth, Ocean; stiff foes in Middlesex

Members of the Central Jersey Rail Coalition are seeking additional support for the proposed Monmouth-Ocean-Middlesex (MOM) passenger rail line.
The MOM line — which is one of several regional rail lines being studied by NJ Transit — would run from central Ocean County through western Mon-mouth County and into South Bruns-wick, Middlesex County. There, the MOM line would connect with the Northeast Corridor for service south to Trenton and Philadelphia and north to New York City.
The Manalapan Township Committee heard from proponents of the MOM line at its Sept. 8 meeting. Mark DeGenaro, a resident, Bernard Gindoff, chairman of the Lakewood Transportation and Safety Board, and Hank N. DePasquale, representing the North Ocean County Trans-portation Commission, said they would like to see more progress toward the MOM rail line.
