Light rail and metro work well in first tier cities. They do not work well in second tier cities. Baltimore is a second tier city. Is there one American second tier city in which light rail works well, and by well I mean rider ship?
It is not being short sighted to point out that car centric suburbs of second tier cities do not support through ridership numbers a light rail system.
