Interesting. I imagine there'd be a pretty similar setup if they were to build on the northern part of the FEC line. Intercity stations in Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and Daytona Beach, and probably commuter stations in all the places JTA looked at in their study 13 years ago. I guess it'd be a matter of whether all these counties, especially St. Johns, are willing to pony up the money.
