Hey, it's only money...
That would be pretty ideal, though looking at Viewpoint it looks like the ROW and rails only go as far as Duffus now. Beyond that... there's a big honkin' assembly hall in the way, plus I'm sure security considerations at the naval yards have changed since the days the rails were there. So south of Duffus you'd probably have to run the rails along Barrington?
