Charlie Harper at Peachpundit.com:

One of the problems....is that most rail in this state is privately owned, and thus, investments in additional capacity will have to come from mostly from private sources that need a decent ROI before they will happen.
If the state/feds see rail as traffic relief, then we’re going to have to find a way to incentivize the railroads to increase their capacity. Most of the state is currently single tracked, and many of the railyards these trains must pass thru are logistical bottleneck nightmares. Upgrades to them tend to cause huge NIMBY problems too, just like road expansions.
