The D&C covers a meeting between the upstate delgation and Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood on high-speed rail. Eric Massa is quoted in the article.
Buffalo Pundit's take on high-speed rail notes that the Rochester-Buffalo-Toronto route makes more sense than Buffalo-Albany. He envisions a "megaregion" where high-speed rail makes commuting between the cities a possibility.
Update: The Buffalo News also has a piece on the LaHood meeting.

I sure don't think this is a slam-dunk, and after the ferry debacle, it deserves a careful look.
The one difference between the train and the ferry is that the train already exists, and people use it.
