VMT vs NCTM

[nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org]

Comments on VMT have passed through this mailing list before.  It has  been 
clear for years that public funding (State of Virginia) for VMT falls far  
below that provided for NCTM, for the several RR museums in Pennsylvania, and so  
on.  The word "commitment" comes to mind.
 
Ron's explanation of the reasons tell us 'why' the situation in Virginia  
exists.  Someone else mentioned the lack of a real train ride.  One  thought; 
does the
N & W 'Belt Line' still exist ?  Nothing is impossible.  But  the current 
lack of interest in 'growing' the VMT by both NS Corp. and the State  of Virginia 
seems likely to keep things just the way they are; at least in my  lifetime.
