“The Minnesota Legislature
has approved a transportation measure that includes nearly $195 million in funding for the Northern Light Express passenger rail service from the Twin Cities to Duluth, Minn. If implemented, it would be the first passenger service to Duluth since Amtrak’s North Star was dropped in 1985. The 152-mile line is expected to cost about $779 million.” https://www.trains.com/trn/news-reviews/news-wire/minnesota-legislature-approves-funding-for-northern-lights-express-passenger-service/ #Minnesota #PassengerRail #NLX
