\"\"<\/a>EDITORIAL – <\/span>Dulles Rail’s Revival<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i><\/p>\n

Its resurrection is a triumph of common sense over dogma and suggests that, contrary to the general impression of the state of governance in Washington, rational outcomes remain possible when grown-ups put their heads together. More specifically, it is a testament to the wisdom and perseverance of officials at Metro, which would operate the 23-mile extension; the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority, which would manage its construction; Sen. John W. Warner (R-Va.), who spearheaded the lobbying with Transportation Secretary Mary Peters to reverse what had seemed like the feds’ unequivocal rejection; and Virginia Gov. Timothy M. Kaine (D).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Let us hope this cooperation continues on what may be a bumpy ride on the way to making this Metro line happen.<\/p>\n

Metro Extension Plan Revived, But Officials Include Conditions<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
Dulles rail project gets federal reprieve<\/b><\/a> – The Wash. Times<\/i>
Rail decision thrusts Tysons development back to forefront<\/b><\/a> – The Wash. Examiner<\/i>
The details on how this came together and some information about what still needs to happen for it to keep going. The biggest sticking point will be addressing the current Metro system woes and find the funding to fix them. It is not over yet, not by a long shot and may in fact just be getting started.<\/p>\n

After Months of Lobbying, Business Leaders Can Celebrate<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
The revival of the Silver Line is a cause for celebration in business circles.<\/p>\n
