A Virginia Railway Express (VRE) train in Clifton, Va.
For many in the region, crossing between D.C., Maryland and Virginia is a daily part of life. But using rail to get between the jurisdictions is not always smooth.

What could a regional rail system look like, what are the challenges to setting it up, and how would it be paid for?
