"all the time" is a coverage statement, and basically true. "frequently" would be a statement on frequency, which is still low.

That's because you're comparing apples to oranges. It's not a light rail line, it's a commuter rail line.
And yet Cap Metro misled the voters in the campaign in 2004 into thinking this was just like light rail; that it was urban; that it served Austin ("most stations are in Austin"); etc.

Forget that, though, even; the reason it should be compared to light rail lines is because it killed our best possible light rail line.

Opportunity cost. Do you speak it?
