Some members of the city council in Toledo, Ohio, are pushing a high-speed system that would connect their city with Detroit and Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Known as the “T” for its shape, the network would have an 86-mile route between Toledo and the Detroit airport with a branch between Detroit and Ann Arbor.
The council members are seeking a study of the T, which could have trains traveling as far as 110 mph.
The city is also eyeing studies of a network that would have a top speed of 80 mph.
Those favoring the network have cited its potential to stimulate long-term economic development and reduce carbon emissions.
