Most funding for the SEHSR to date has been by the USDOT and the states of North Carolina and Virginia. Both states already fund some non-high speed rail service operated for them by Amtrak , and own Locomotive s and passenger cars. The first large section of the SEHSR, from Washington, DC through Virginia and North Carolina south to Charlotte, is due to be in service by 2010 based on funding availability. {Link without Title} Other potential sections in Georgia , South Carolina , and Florida are under study. Virginia is also studying two other projects with connecting sections. One is the Richmond-Hampton Roads corridor, from Richmond east to Hampton Roads . {Link without Title} . Another project, knowns as the Transdominion Express , would extend from Richmond west to Lynchburg and from Washington, DC ( Alexandria ) south via an existing Virginia Railway Express route to Manassas , extending on south to Charlottesville , Lynchburg, Roanoke and Bristol on the Tennessee border. {Link without Title} EXTERNAL LINKS
