The route of imagined rail tunnel between the west of Westerly and the west of New London
Existing rail section between the west of New London and the west of Westerly
Imaging building an electrified rail tunnel bypassing Mystic and New London
- Bypassing 10 of 11 rail crossings in the #NorthEastCorridor
- Avoiding the curve in the New London area
