MARC Service to Extend to Fredrick, MD

According to the September, 1996, issue of Trains magazine, MARC has received $9.8 million in federal funding to acquire and improve the old B&O right-of-way between Point of Rocks, MD, and Frederick. The 13 1/2 miles of track are currently owned by CSX, and MARC hopes to extend commuter service from the Brunswick Line to Frederick.

This information appeared in the Scanner section of Trains, September, 1996, p.23.

UPDATE - You can now see photos of the new station on my Frederick Station page.
