Broad gauge was and is a flop. WMATA and MARTA knew better. BART did not even take advantage of the wider gauge to build a wider car.

BART-Bechtel did not want to build a railroad - they were ashamed of it and tried to call it "supported duorail". They did not want any hunting because it reminded riders they were on a hated train.

BART spends a fortune on fully grade separated and automated train control. It should lower fares by going driverless. Any new track should be standard gauge.
