@380kmh long shot but a rational one - have you seen any reports / sources / case studies on incentives and public-private means to encourage commercial rail use ... like a roadmap to rehabilitating that infrastructure?

the good news is this route is already in use--I don't know how good the track condition is, but some minor rehab and maintenance would probably be the place to start: replacing ties, reballasting, etc...next would be signal modernization, probably the most important step

Once you have signals to allow for hourly-or-better trains, you want to work on building the actual stations and securing the actual passenger trains (DMUs, like the ones pictured, would probably suffice for a low-population area like northern VT)pic.twitter.com/odEJraVJEk

Thank you, this is a good start for library searches

good luck! I hear that the improvements Amtrak made to their "Keystone Corridor" are exemplary, at least by American standards
