Would that include the ex-RF&P from WashDC to Richmond? I can't see any of this happening soon without taxpayer-funds. I don't think CSX has the $ for anything near that big.

I don't think Amcrash is going to buy out CSX. Amtrak almost went out of business last month!

work was started between hb tower (camden yard) and cx (carroll) about a month ago for signal improvements. between carroll and halethorpe, contractors are relocating fiber optic and other utility lines for preparation of grade widening and eventual track improvements. no word yet on things from halethorpe to riverdale, i work in baltimore terminal, so i dont get out there all that much. i'll try to keep you posted!
