Crist expects more federal money for rail

Fox News 35
Gov. Charlie Crist says he expects more federal money to pay for a high speed rail system between Tampa and Orlando.

Crist on Friday called President Barack Obama's announcement that Florida would get $1.25 billion in stimulus money for the project a "down payment."

The governor was on hand Thursday to greet Obama in Tampa where the president announced high speed rail grants for Florida and other states.

The $1.25 billion, though, is only about half of what Florida requested.
