VRE spokeswoman Karen Finucan-Clarkson says the final implementation of the new service is being held up by contract negotiations with CSX, which owns the tracks on the Fredericksburg line, and Norfolk Southern Railroad which owns the tracks on the Manassas line.
She says VRE is also waiting for Amtrak to complete badly needed switching and signal work at Union Station in D.C., which is currently being done on weekends.
VRE plans to add four trains, two in the morning on Saturday into D.C. and two in the afternoon, terminating at the Spotsylvania station. It will be the first weekend service in the commuter railroad’s 32-year history.
