A $53 million discrepancy in Dulles Rail: If they did this, what else did they do?

Another major discrepancy has appeared in the Dulles Rail costing figures.

News source after news source is reporting that the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors was told that the cost of the Rt 28 rail station would be $83 million dollars.  But my recollection was that it was listed as a $136 million 'saving' by the US DOT in their July 3, 2011 white paper report.

So I took a look, and indeed this $53 million discrepancy exists.  On Fairfax County's own website I found this resolution, claiming the station cost to be $83 million and the parking garage cost to be $53.5 million.

Now compare this to the US DOT white paper report of July 3, 2011.

Route 772 Station (North) : 1434 : $37.8M
Route 772 Station (South) : 1540 : $40.6M

Total Savings : 8915 : $235.3M"

Clearly, there is a $53 million financial discrepancy in the Rt 28 station cost figures.  In the US DOT white paper report from US DOT, the price for the Rt 28 station is listed as $136 million and shown as a $136 million 'saving' in its item 4, and the price for the associated parking facility at the Rt 28 station is listed as $53.5 million, and is included in the $235 million saving in item 5.

Somebody has either subtracted the $53.5 million from the $136 million to falsely give the Fairfax Board of Supervisors a smaller $83 million dollar number, or somebody added the $83 million and the $53.5 million numbers to falsely give the US DOT and MWAA an inflated $136 million 'saving' figure.  Either way, somebody has some explaining to do!

Why is it that I am the only one who noticed this?  Where are the anti-tax people?  Where is the media?  Where are the accountants in government?

In my opinion, this is another example of numbers that just don't add up in this boondoggle ripoff known as Dulles Rail.  And the errors just happen to be convenient, showing either higher savings for MWAA, or a lower cost for Fairfax County.  How about that.

If they did this here, what else did they do?  Dulles Rail has been a parade of lies since it went political in 2002. Stop the madness, and send US DOT and MWAA back to the drawing board!
