Having them turn around and go back would not be ideal. The whole point would be for passengers to not have to get off and change trains. If they have to get off and change trains to go through, that's no different that getting on the Metro. Pointless. To be worthwhile, MARC needs to keep going through to Alexandria, and VRE needs to keep going through to Silver Spring, maybe even Rockville. If they can't do that, then there's no point in doing anything differently than they are now.
Good luck getting more slots from the freight carriers though. Not gonna happen. None of this is happening with more tracks. Ever.
