Alternative for Charlotte-Atlanta approved

The Greenfield Corridor being selected last month was a shocker. Just like with the station location at the southern terminus of the Texas Central project in early 2016, it was the FRA that made the final decision. This could potentially lead to all three alternatives being used--the Greenfield being used by a future operator while being the official SEHSR route south of Charlotte; the I-85 Corridor possibly being used by Brightline; and the Crescent Corridor being used by Amtrak. It goes without saying that the Crescent route should have already had a daytime New York-Atlanta alternative to #19 and #20 at a minimum.
