Amtrak has done years and years of studies, which can be found quite easily with a quick search, but i’ve included a link to all sorts of information below:

And no one is saying that Wilmington sucks, just that it’s not a likely candidate for high-speed rail given the reality of the numbers. Though i’ll point out that Wilmington’s ridership is disproportionately high given the size of the city (per Amtrak’s interactive ridership map); be proud of your town, yo.
