The promise
of rail

As highways and airports grow more congested, passenger rail is looking less like a relic of the past and more like an economically and environmentally preferred alternative. The Midwest, especially, is the perfect place for a high-speed rail network, since major cities are spaced ideally to make rail a competitive transportation option.

This section of our site provides information on current planning for rail including commuter rail in Greater Cleveland, passenger rail along the Cleveland-Columbus-Cincinnati corridor, and a Midwest rail connecting Cleveland to Chicago and other cities.

We also offer ideas for how you can support the development of better rail service. Many other nations have built transportation systems around fast, convenient passenger rail. We can, too!
