I'm not even sure you could justify the cost of electrification south of DC. How many Regionals run south of DC a day? 6-8?Yes; eight each way between Washington and Richmond. Considering the large increase in Keystone Service ridership when it returned to electric operation, I suspect several additional trains would be added between Richmond and Washington if electrification were extended.  |
