The Shenandoah Valley Battlefields Foundation announced [on Feb. 2nd] that it had negotiated a letter of intent with Norfolk Southern Corp. to purchase for $23 million the 48-mile [railroad] corridor which stretches from Front Royal to Broadway[, Virginia]. In addition, the foundation has partnered with the Virginia Military Institute engineering department to explore solutions to potential design challenges.

According to foundation CEO Keven Walker, the goal is to develop the corridor as a 450-acre linear park, with a heritage excursion and freight railway at its center.
