Here is a very short video from Mexico City on one of the new Transportation Centers just opened... Hopefully JTA will see this and take notes, while our citizens see it and make demands!

MEANWHILE, down in my old stomping grounds, we have a video of the interior of one of Colombia's fantastic Transportation Centers.  Note this is a SINGLE SWEEP OF THE CAMERA, that all of those logos are independent bus, taxi, rail, operators + plus more vendors then Carter has pills.  Note the size of the Colombian dedication to mass transportation and keep in mind you are ONLY seeing the ticketing area!

Southwest of Medellin, Colombia is the beautiful coffee region and the city of Armenia.  Certainly a second-tier City by Colombian Standards, perhaps it's surface transportation terminal will be second to Jacksonville's efforts?
Reality Check boys and girls.

Finally, how about having your kid sister run our new commuter train to the Avenues Mall? Don't think she can handle it? Don't think Jacksonville is up to the challenge? Think we need more money? Resources? Drive?  Honest folks, we might not even qualify as a 3Rd world city if that's the case, because my morning commute in MEDELLIN, Colombia, would knock your socks off. ENJOY!

NOW PLEASE DO NOT KEEP YOUR THOUGHTS TO YOURSELF! WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I love commuter trains. Good way to sit back and relax and not worry about traffic.
