I've seen them tied to the Texas Central project, and now they come up in the context of the DC-Baltimore maglev project. I can buy either project (albeit for different reasons: Texas makes sense from a straight investment perspective, while the maglev would probably assist them in recouping the R&D costs on their own maglev project), but both seem like a stretch in light of their apparent deployable cash...especially since DC-Baltimore at the start would be constrained to being a really nice commuter line and wouldn't exactly have the market scale that I think would be needed for any sort of cost-recouping (New York-Philly would probably have a better shot at that, though DC at least offers political support as a significant side-benefit).
So does anyone have a clue as to what JR Central might actually be planning? Sending out feelers and seeing what actually sells?
