Here is my idea for the Metro Valley in the Charleston/Huntington/Ashland metro area. Uses existing rail. Would connect two cities, while adding suburban stops.

This is a map I doodled up earlier this year of what a potential Northeast Ohio rail network might look like. I tried to base it almost entirely on existing rail rights-of-way (based on Google Maps/satellite view).

Does this fall under commuter rail or inter-city rail?

Does this fall under high-speed rail, commuter rail or inter-city rail?

Here are 3 new NJ transit lines and one extension + improvement project I have proposed to add to the existing Network,:

Existing NJT Network:
http://www.njtransit.com/pdf/rail/Rail_System_Map.pdf

South Jersey Main Line (Philly-Vineland)
https://www.city-data.com/forum/attac...-main-line.jpg

West Trenton Line (Newark-West Trenton)
https://www.city-data.com/forum/attac...enton-line.png

Mount Holly Line (Philly-Mount Holly)
https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid...9cd9e853&msa=0

Raritan Valley Line Extension & Improvements (NYC-Phillipsburg)
https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid...7d0249da&msa=0

West Trenton line is likely to be built by NJT in 10-12 years. Rest of the maps are a Pipe dream and will never happen in my lifetime.
