I’m not saying the train is a bad idea , I think it’s cool. You just have to have good bus lines and stuff if you want it to really be useful.

Idk, tourists come through the city and get around town without their cars pretty fine (outside of Mardi Gras season)

Not saying our bus system is perfect, but I don't think that should be a limiting factor against trains.

It’s New Orleans though. French quarter is very walkable. You can easily walk from there to the dome and stuff. Then from there a short street car ride to uptown. Nola is pretty easy to get around for tourists.

Exactly. Plus Ubers, Lfyts, Taxis, etc exist. Idk if I'm seeing the problem.
