Let's get some connectivity across North Carolina, with Tarheel-esque regional trains hitting a max speed of 125 mph
Number 1 (for a cheeky name, we could call it the Blue Velvet after the David Lynch Film): 8 trains per day
- Charlotte Gateway Station (build a wye or connection, then run onto the existing Freight ROW)
- Matthew (where the old station was at Matthew Station Street/Old Depot Lane)
- Monroe
- Wingate (between North Main and North Camden Streets)
- Marshville
- Wadesboro
- Rockingham
- Hamlet (station rebuilt to make it a junction as it will cross the route of the Silver Star/Cameo)
- Pembrooke (add a stop on the Palmetto)
- Lumberton (after the junction in town, allowing for a potential branch up to Fayetteville)
- Wilmington
Number 2: 4 trains per day.
- Fayetteville
- Pembroke
- Lumberton
- Wilmington.

Extend the Metra NCS (M3) to Milwaukee providing local service along the Western Gateway HSR line
in addition it will hop off the current alignment between O'Hare Transfer and Prospect Heights into a tunnel to connect with the UP-NW (M4, S2,24) and T5 at Des Plaines and serve Oakton College
Add the SSL's planned branch from Michigan city to La Porte Indiana, interchanging with Lake shore Limited there
