3C is Me!
Expand Passenger Rail in Ohio.

With Ohio’s 3C “Quick Start” Passenger Rail Service, more than 60% of Ohio’s population will have increased travel options as early as 2011.

Trains, operating at up to 79 miles per hour in 2011 and up to 110 miles per hour in the future, will connect Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton and Cincinnati, generating jobs and economic development along the way.

The service will be safe, efficient and cost effective, connecting Ohio to the nationally-prioritized Chicago Hub Network – all using federal stimulus dollars.

Amtrak has produced a draft ridership and revenue study, following more than nine months of research and analysis by the nation’s largest passenger rail service provider. Ohio will include information from this study as part of Ohio’s application for federal stimulus funding to be filed October 2nd.
