KC, indy, and columbus are the other major midwestern cities without any rail transit, but their inclusion in the "rust belt" is more ambiguous.


(*) yes, technically, a small number of people do commute between milwaukee and chicago via amtrak's hiawatha service, but that's not the kind of in-town rail transit we're talking about.
