I have decided to scribble in a map of all the cities that have announced their participation in the corridor ID program in March so you can see what may happen over the next few years

Dashes are line that aren't be considered but should, red is a real line, I just can't change the color, and Montana has some plans but no other states have voiced interest in restoring the north coast Hiawatha


The current lines that are coming in the corridor I'd program if all goes well and nobody changes their mind looks to be:

  • Boise to Salt Lake (orange)
  • Downeastern extension to Bangor (yellow)
  • Gulf coast service(both shades of light blue)
  • 3C+D(pink)
  • Madison extension(purple)
  • Hiawatha extension to Greenbay(dark blue)

@ursa-arrowbreaker, I can give you the sources for this proposal that I have found. The line is actually interesting because pretty much every city on the route supports it as well as the Idaho state government.
