no one has ever been able to explain who will be the daily rider for SF/LA or Dallas/Houston rail

I don't mean people trying it out once, or tourists...I mean people who will commit to riding it daily



Almost nobody will take that train daily, and it is stupid to think anyone would or should. However it is reasonable to expect the train will be crowded from all the people who take it less often. Companies send their people to other cities often for various business reasons. People take several vacations per year. Nobody is doing this daily - but the sum total of weekly, monthly, yearly, and once in a lifetime trips add up to a lot of people very day.
