You’re gonna say no public train infrastructure exists in the DC metro area?

I can ride a train from Baltimore to dc if I want.

I can cross DC with the metro, a public train system. Is the #2 ranking not including the trains? The DC metro system is busses and trains

Note this map doesn’t show Virginia Rail or Maryland or Amtrak service connections, this is JUST the dc metro rail map.

There are proposed light rail connector lines in MD.

FWIW it’s not nothing, going to other major cities in the country is a shock though.
