| 摘要： | The study of potential rail service to Bristol was initiated in 1996 with funding provided by the General Assembly. As a result of several studies by the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT), the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) and Norfolk Southern Corporation (NS), a general concept for passenger rail service to Central and Southwestern Virginia has been developed. This service, which has come to be known as the TransDominion Express (TDX), includes two round trip trains per day serving 19 stations along a route from Bristol to Washington, D.C. with connecting service from Richmond to Lynchburg. Norfolk Southern has studied the proposed service and stands by its capital investment estimate of $120 million to implement the full TDX service. Additional capital funding will also be needed for station improvements and grade crossing upgrades. Analysis of operating costs indicates that the annual operating subsidy required for the full TDX service is approximately $14 million. |
