WhereDaily News: Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc. (OTCQB: XTRN) -- The X Train Announces Its Logistics Plan to Open LA to Vegas on the Western Alignment
LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - Oct 21, 2014) - The Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc. (OTCQB: XTRN), known as the Vegas X Train, with planned luxury train travel service between Los Angeles and Las Vegas, announced today it has begun the engineering of the route to Las Vegas via conventional rail on what it calls the Western Alignment. The original plan by the X Train was to traverse the Cajon Pass to Barstow and then north to Las Vegas. As capacity on that route became restricted, X Train reached out to UNLV's Rail Engineering program headed by Dr. Harry Teng to plan the logistics of an alternative route to Las Vegas. The UNLV plan is consistent with the RTC's plan of 2007 which shows access to Las Vegas via rail from the west rather than via the heavily trafficked Cajon Pass.
