That really surprises me though, that with non-double tracked and limited sidings, and slow freight trains (that would take over an hour to travel through the corridor) that they'd run at the same time in the passenger corridor.
Or maybe they mean this is necessary but not sufficient, that they still need full double tracking to do that (in the future).
Or "at the same time" means passenger service in the passenger corridor, and freight at the same time west of Leander and on the green line.
