@DavidDuck, please read the plan. Interesting paragraph on page 13 on how the new underground tracks would be connected.

"The lower track level would be connected to the Northeast Corridor main line by means of a bored tunnel from Union Station northeast to the vicinity of the Anacostia River. An
additional tunnel would connect the station with new train storage and maintenance facilities in the Ivy City area. Additionally, the plan provides that future tracks from the lower level of Union Station could be extended to the south, enabling extension of high-performance high-speed rail service to Virginia, North Carolina, and the
southeastern United States."

Now, how they would do that if there was a re-routed Blue Line running under the station would be interesting. A really deep Blue Line station?
