Several months after rejecting federal funds to build high-speed rail across Wisconsin, Gov. Scott Walker is now asking for at least $150 million to add trains for an existing Milwaukee-to-Chicago line.It's like... Scott Walker's on a quest to make everyone hate him or something. All those people who went to bat for him on the high speed rail thing... how ya feeling now?
Walker said Tuesday the federal funds would be used to buy two train sets and eight locomotives as well as build a maintenance facility in Milwaukee.

But he's talking 'normal' speed rail, that's like totally different.
And apparently we have to have maintenance facilities on both ends. That's business smarts for ya.
