“This is your typical government boondoggle,” said one Fayetteville resident. “Unless you were born there, or you play in a cover band, no one goes to Fort Smith.”

At a cost of $8.5 million per mile, the 54-mile train line will cost taxpayers an estimated $500 million,

including an additional $42 million earmarked for the construction of the two stations at either end.

Federal highway funds will provide twenty percent of the total cost, with the remainder coming from Arkansas taxpayers.
