@abbie.cheeseman: The MetroLink extension to MidAmerica St. Louis Airport is part of a $192 million project, and the train itself makes up $154 million of that. The rest covers a new access road and a bike trail. MidAmerica cost more than $300 million to build in the 1990s and landed in an NBC Nightly News segment on government waste before it opened. Have you flown Allegiant out of MidAmerica? #aviation #MetroLink #MidAmericaAirport #StLouis #avgeek

Honestly this does way more than service the airport, many people from the surrounding mascoutah area can commute to work for extremely cheap via metro link to access so many job opportunities in the StL/Metro East area.. I don’t like our governor but this was an excellent amenity and use of transportation grants

Why does St. Louis need two airports? The Pittsburgh metro is about the same size and just downsized its 1990s-era airport that was built as a US Air hub.

St Louis has a train to their secondary airport, while New York City does not. Amazing!

metro link didn't pay for it. it was funded and built by St Clair County, Illinois. St. Louis wasn't involved.

Lambert used to be a much busier airport before TWA folded and American closed their hub. I’m assuming that’s why MidAmeirican was built. (Lambert also famously eminent-domained a whole small suburb to build a new runway for TWA that didn’t get finished until after TWA folded.)
