Right... Columbus is about 80 miles from B&O's Chicago line and 45 miles from B&O's St. Louis line. My last post was unclear about just what 'it' was, and I apologize for that.
daveklepper Note that some of the route from Baltimore north to Harrisburg is now used by Baltimore Light Rail system. A scenic ride. Hard to imagine Amtrak sharing the racks or RoW, but anything is possible.

Under the current FRA regs, FRA compliant and non FRA compliant equipment are not allowed to mix. So no anything is not possible.
ROBERT WILLISON Mike does CSX have Detroit to Toledo route ?

Yes, but the CSX route is round-about. It goes west from Detroit to Plymouth, then south to Toledo. It intersects the ATK Wolverine route about midway between Detroit and Ann Arbor. NS and CN have direct lines DET-TOL, but none of the lines are remotely high speed. I rode the NS (ex-CR) line back in the early 90s when it had ATK service (it was 2 parallel directional lines).
Well their ya go
