The current issue of Trains has an interesting article on Norfolk Southern's Heartland Corridor project, which has improved clearances to accommodate double-stack trains along the former Norfolk & Western main line in Virginia and West Virginia.
It is a big, ambitious project, requiring extensive tunnel and bridge work.
But I'll let Norfolk Southern explain:
Norfolk Southern is investing in a way that does its heritage proud - this is big-time railroading. And this isn't all - there's the Crescent Corridor, too - but that's a post for another day.
The short take-away: exciting things are happening in Eastern railroading.
