When the trains start running through Ashland again, will there be oil trains or passengers?
— Dave H., Ashland
Well, Dave, we have a very short answer for you, followed by some details.
Bob Melbo, the state rail planner at the Oregon Department of Transportation Rail and Public Transit Division sums it all up: No. The rail line that runs through the Rogue Valley and over the Siskiyous is capable of handling traditional freight, but not much beyond that.
