Max: True, I didn't get it. Thanks to you and Edward for clarifying what it is the FEC is attempting to do. It is quite amazing that a private company is investing in passenger rail, so hopefully this will be a success. We have for too long thought of "private passenger service" as a clacked out beater operation a la Iowa Pacific Santa Cruz operations.
Will the Brightline service be on its own tracks, or will freight only operate at hours when Brightline is not in service? 125 mph passenger and standard freight typically don't play well together, so FEC must have something planned.
