Really? Even FEC desires transit near their planned stations. What transit does Tampa Bay have connecting all its cities together, for example Tampa with St. Petersburg? Orlando, Kissimmee, and Sanford will have Sun Rail, while Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, and West Palm Beach already have Tri Rail.
Additionally, FEC's AAF will be privately financed, I wish I could say the same for the ex-HSR proposal from Tampa. Tampa should look at establishing fast mass transit lines before expecting faster intercity trains than the existing Amtrak service.
