New study revives interest in Blaine train stop

The idea of a passenger rail stop in White Rock may have ground to a halt years ago – but the concept is still alive and kicking just across the border for the City of Blaine, Wash.

Blaine, which began pursuing the idea in earnest again last year, is receiving help from economics students at Western Washington University to conduct a feasibility study for an Amtrak stop on the BNSF line through the city.
