North Carolina and Texas get the go ahead for high-speed rail plans: This week high-speed rail moved forward in North Carolina and Texas. The North Carolina Department of Transportation received a federal grant to purchase right of way for a passenger line that would run from Raleigh to Richmond, Virginia. At the same time, a planned passenger line between Houston and Dallas received important approvals from the Federal Railroad Administration to move forward.
