    WARNING: Toll road hogs are drooling to take away right-of-way space designated for rail in the middle of freeways after the recent election losses in both Hillsborough and Pinellas counties.
    AAF needs to work on obtaining that I-4 right of way ASAP to bring its train service to Tampa. If it becomes a toll lane, the rail project could be doomed for the long term. That corridor was designated for high-speed rail by former governor Jeb Bush, and we need to hold his feet to the fire for it.
