The Virginia Railway Express (VRE) is extending its Operating and Access agreement with CSX Transportation (CSX) for one more year, but the deal may not go much further than June 2021.
This 2011 agreement allows VRE commuter trains to use the tracks between Fredericksburg and Washington, D.C. and was set to expire by the end of this month. VRE uses railways that are owned by CSX, and similar agreements have been in place between the two organizations since 1994.
VRE has a similar agreement with Norfolk Southern railroad in order to run trains on the system's Manassas line, between the Manassas Regional Airport and Washington, D.C.
