Any updates on the EBTCRR?

Since I cannot afford trains magazine and only have Model railroader, would anyone be kind enough to sum up what the "EBT group focuses on Standard gauge/common carrier operations?

These are the opinions of an under 35 , from the east end of, and modeling, the same section of the Wheeling and Lake Erie railway.  As well as a freelanced road (Austinville and Dynamite City railroad).

They will rehab the standard gauge from it's NS connection to an industrial park in Mt Union.  They are hoping freight business will underwrite rehabing the narrow gauge track and a steam engine in  2 or 3 years.  They have also bought 4 miles of NG from the outskirts of Mt Union to the Augwick bridge.
