There's one thing in play that may be the saving grace for Old Fort - Asheville: Passenger service. The state of North Carolina has expressed that desire loud and clear over the years. They are also one of the states well known for seriously investing in passenger rail. Some sort of public-private partnership with NS on the repairs or an outright purchase by the state may be how that segment is ultimately returned to service.
