Train can't get to depot

St. Paul light-rail hub plan bumps into a fiscal reality

... Four routes are being looked at for the end of the line. One ends in front of the Union Depot and cuts a diagonal through the block at 4th and Cedar streets. The other three would end at the concourse using either Wacouta, Broadway or the 2nd Street viaduct. Bell said early studies show the viaduct would need to be rebuilt at a cost of $57.8 million. It's not worth it, he said. The two other options would still be studied. The county sees the concourse in Lowertown as an integral piece of mass transit operations. The depot lobby, or headhouse, is privately owned.
