Pacific Northwest Corridor

The Pacific Northwest Corridor or the Pacific Northwest Rail Corridor (PNWRC) is one of eleven federally designated high-speed rail corridors in the United States. The corridor extends from Eugene, Oregon to Vancouver, British Columbia via Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington. It was designated a high-speed rail corridor on October 20, 1992, as the fifth of five corridors called for in the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA). The corridor is owned by BNSF Railway in Washington and British Columbia, and by Union Pacific Railroad (UP) in Oregon, and is used by a mix of freight and passenger trains operated by BNSF, UP, and Amtrak. If improvements to the corridor are completed as proposed in Washington State's long range plan, passenger trains operating at a maximum speed of would travel between Portland and Seattle, in 2 hours and 30 minutes, and between Seattle and Vancouver in 2 hours and 37 minutes by 2023.
The Pacific Northwest Corridor is a proposed railway that would run from Eugene, Oregon to Vancouver, British Columbia and connect those cities along with Salem/Portland, Vancouver WA/Olympia/Tacoma/Seattle/Everett, and Bellingham, Washington.
== Current passenger service ==
The Pacific Northwest Rail corridor is used by several Amtrak and local commuter rail services. Amtrak operates ''Amtrak Cascades'' over the length of the corridor, the ''Coast Starlight'' from Seattle southward, and for short segments, the ''Empire Builder''. BNSF Railway operates Sounder commuter rail for Sound Transit between Seattle and Tacoma, Washington, and Seattle and Everett, Washington. The Rocky Mountaineer operates seasonal service between Seattle and Vancouver.
