| 2 | I am very supportive of further study of the feasibility of passenger rail in Cleveland and throughout the Midwest. |

| 5 | I fully support public investment in rail infrastructure both passenger and freight. It is absolutely neccessary for the future of our state and country. |

| 8 | Support Rail in Ohio! |
| 9 | Pleas help restore rail travel to Ohio, especially central Ohio. Without ANY rail travel possibilities here we are becoming increasingly stuck in long lines of dangerous autos, trucks, etc.. This is no way to live! |
| 10 | I enthusiatically support the Ohio Hub Plan as do others in northeast Ohio. |

| 14 | Ohio needs transportation choices and alternatives to the automobile and foreign oil dependency. |

| 16 | I grew up in Cleveland. I love Columbus but I think something that is missing is a light rail system like Cleveland's Rapid Transit line. It is a great way for people in the suburbs to travel into the city and also a great way to get to the airport. |
| 17 | will the value of the dollar declining and highway funds dwindling, this is a definite priority in my eyes. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | What better time to get on board with the Ohio hub than right now? High gas prices, problems with air transportation, concern about the environment and greenhouse gases, highway congestion.... The time couldn't be any better than to take the train! |

| 23 | I moved to Columbus from the Boston area in July 2006 and the thing that I miss most about Boston is the public transit! Please make it more appealing and efficient for Columbus' population to make a more sustainble choice in transportation by builing a passenger rail hub. |

| 26 | Ohio desperately needs an alternative to the automobile, especially between major cities such as Cincinnati, Columbus and Cleveland. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | Any transportation policy that doesn't include a sober and rational approach to rail development is just unacceptable in this day and age. The spread of our population equally across Ohio makes us a classic rail transportation market. Furthermore, proximity to much of the rest of the country's population makes Ohio critical to rail developments throughout the midwest. Let's get on with it, already! If not for tranportation, then for the jobs that the Hub Plan would create. |
| 29 | I strongly support the development of the Ohio Hub Project. I hope that the legislature will take action on this soon! |

| 34 | In light of the current economic situation which may affect low and middle class families across Ohio, I feel the time is ripe to examine the future of the states mass transit opportunities. As a geographically significant linchpin in our nation's transportation network, Ohio has a important role to play. Please be forward thinking in moving foreward with Ohio's Rail Development. We have it within our means to set the stage for affordable, efficient and enjoyable transportation alternatives that can compete for quality of service on a global stage. (...from a citizen who lived in Europe and knows what is possible) Thank You Thank you |

| 41 | I support a commuter rail system in the state of ohio which would be designed to relieve traffic from the interstate highways |
| 42 | A rail service is greatly needed in Ohio. It would not only create jobs, but also cut back on trtaffic congestion and greenhouse gas pollution. It would would be great leap forward and Ohio would become a model for many other places to follow. |
| 43 | I support a high speed commuter rail system in ohio that will relieve traffic from the interstate highway system. |
| 44 | Ohio is in need of better rail transportation ie passenger and freight. Cleveland needs commuter trains from downtown Cleveland to Lorain, Akron-Canton and Painesville-Ashtabula and additional daytime Amtrak trains From downtown Cleveland to Sandusky-Toledo-Chicago, Columbus-Cincinnati, Erie-Buffalo and Youngstown-Pittsburgh. |
| 45 | I urge all public officals to support public transportation |
| 46 | We must invest in passenger rail for energy independence and reduced carbon emissions. The time is now. |
