Why not build an electrified spur to the white house?Not a day you would want to railfan, you would probably get arrested. The SS would probably sweep every station PHL-WAS on the NEC including SEPTA and MARC commuter stations.
I don't think they could shut down the NEC. Not with the number of people trying to get into DC that weekend. I don't think the trip will be really that much different from when the British royal family travels the NEC, except with much more security. Maybe he should just take Metro from Union Station to the White House (Farragut North) .
