How many miles of additional railroad track will be needed to accommodate expanded passenger rail service?
Ohio is fortunate to have nearly 6,000 miles of railroad track. Other than upgrading tracks and crossings to handle passenger rail, not much track or right-of-way will need to be added to accommodate the expansion of rail in the state. Fortunately, Ohio has many active rail lines. See map below of the current active rail lines in Ohio.
