What percentage of Virginia residents travel by train? Frankly, your numbers are suspect.  For example, in one of your previous posts you claim that the changes in  the Consumer Price Index have been minimal for the referenced decade. Between November 2012 and November 2000 the CPI, which is not a measure of construction costs, has increased by 36.79%. This does not strike me as minimal. Actually, it has little connection with construction costs. You also claim that the people in most western democracies realize that autos, especially those carrying just one passenger, are not suitable for long distance trips, but you don't provide us with any facts to support your contention.  Actually, most people in this country, if they are traveling on business, will fly if the distance is more than 250 miles.   You claim that Amtrak's Newport News to Boston train is a success, presumably because it had an operating profit of $3.8 million in FY12.  But you are not including the cost of the capital structure, which in the case of the NEC is substantial.
