810115 Southbound SCL train approaching a meet with a northbound train in far southern Virginia on the SCL S line in 1981. This segment of the line, now owned by SLC successor CSX, is out of service with tracks removed. It may, however, be re-activated as part of the Southeast Hig-Speed Rail Corridor.

Additional context on the relevance of this image is provided on the main page describing plans to re-activate the currently idle (tracks removed between 1985 and 1987) segment of the CSX S line between Petersburg, Va., and Raleigh, N.C., as a high-speed passenger rail corridor. Construction of the Southeast High-Speed Rail (SEHSR) corridor would also require substantially upgrading the still intact segment of track between Norlina, N.C., and Raleigh, N.C.
