...cost to significantly overhaul the country's rail system. And there are concerns that by spreading the funds to so many different projects in so many different states, it won't be possible to make a real difference in any one place, as Mark Reutter wrote in a new report for the Progressive Policy Institute. It doesn't help that the one region that could most obviously benefit from truly high-speed rail - the Boston-to-Washington corridor - received a mere $112 million in funding, in part because building new track in the congested area would be prohibitively expensive...
