[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Train Guy 3 [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Limitedclear [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Blue Ridge Front On the NC transportation map it shows the North Carolina Railroad (NCRR) running from Charlotte to Raleigh, and then to Beaufort on the coast. Two Amtrak train services in North Carolina (the Piedmont and Carolinian) are joint operated with Amtrak and the NCDOT. But Amtrak service on the NCRR only runs between Charlotte and Raleigh, not to Morehead City and Beaufort, and Norfolk Southern as well. What would be the reason for NS leasing the line to the state if not for their own partially funded passenger trains? [/quote] Just to make sure you are clear on this. The state of NC owns the NCRR and leases it to the NS, not vice versa. LC [/quote] Thanks for clearing that up for me. Since NS leases the track, does NS pay for track maintaince or does NC pay for it? [/quote] I don't know for certain as I haven't seen the lease documents. Custom in such cases is for the railroad (NS) to maintain the track under the terms of the lease. LC
