Well, this is pretty big news. It seems a "Pocket Track" is in the works for Summit and will be up and running within 4 years. It really does make a lot of sense to put it here, considering how bottle-necked Summit can get during Rush Hour. The Summit infrastructure really has been in need of upgrading for a long time. The slow speed switches are a real killer in so many ways. It would be nice if they upgraded those switches/signals there, but it sound like this new project may well be independent from the present interlocking. We'll have to wait and see.
