Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg in NC on Monday to promote new $1 billion passenger rail.
The plans include designing and building passenger rail routes between Raleigh and Richmond, connecting the state with Virginia, Washington, D.C. and the Northeast Corridor.
"It's a generational undertaking. It won't get done overnight but it will be done swiftly and with this funding, North Carolina will be able to bring that new transit service connecting Raleigh to Wake Forest, upgrading tracks, improving safety at several railroad crossings, and laying the groundwork for a key section of the Southeast Corridor," said US Transportation Pete Buttigieg.
The White House projects the rail system will be a major time-saver for travelers; currently, it takes about six hours from Raleigh Union Station to Washington, D.C., and more than ten hours from Raleigh Union Station to New York City.

I have ridden Amtrak from here in the Triangle to DC and to NY a number of times because I love trains, even though it's a long ride compared to a one hour flight to NYC. This should have happened years ago, but I'm thrilled to see at least it's coming. The several years ago new Union Station in Raleigh is gorgeous.

Eh. 50% chance at getting a 3 and I went for the calamari fritti instead of the sushi.

I had a list of 4 possible after tapas and I needed a word to eliminate as many as possible if I wasn't going into multiple choice hell. So, happy to take the 5 and keep my streak, now at 216.
