$163,000+ per daily passenger. What a Deal!

from Google AI:
The Baltimore Metro SubwayLink (the heavy rail train line) cost a total of \(\$1.392\) billion to build when its final section finished in 1995. [1, 2]
This original \(15.4\)-mile system is now undergoing more than \(\$500\) million in modernizations and new train car purchases.

What bullplop. The real number (as per the g00gle AI) is $121,000 per rider. But that would be if it ran for one day and then shut down. You think that's the plan?
