 Projects like restoring long-distance passenger rails can take a lot of time, money, and resources. The FRA used the long-distance service study to look at the feasibility and necessary funding to bring these services to life. The federal agency has proposed routes that would serve multiple cities in the West. One from Seattle to Denver would go through Boise and Pocatello and on to Salt Lake City. The second would go from Los Angeles to Denver through Salt Lake.
