If you shaved 3 minutes off each run out of Penn Station, you would improve 600,000 weekday transit trips.

So yeah, I think that would be just a tad more useful than an empty choo-choo from Orlando burbs to Tampa burbs.

And I don't know why you're referencing Disney. The Disney customer has a rental car if he's traveling elsewhere in Florida, and his ultimate destination wouldn't be suburban Tampa anyways.
