Early proposalAccording to Metro, there are only about 80 miles of corridors being considered. Commuter rail lines were in Metro's plans in 1994 when voters approved a one-fourth cent transit sales tax, but officials dropped them later because the cost was not worth the benefit and the fare would be expensive.{{fact|date=December 2018}} Latest proposalThe 2010 Moving Transit Forward long-range plan proposes corridors running from the Gateway Multimodal Transportation Center near downtown St. Louis. The options (which are dependent on the successful completion of planned Amtrak high-speed rail routes) could run to Alton, Illinois, and Eureka or Pacific, Missouri. The use of existing high-speed rail infrastructure would mean costs could be limited to building stations, purchasing trains and operating the service.[1] Proposed corridors
