This is about a big train company called Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway. They are almost finished with a very big project that cost $30 million dollars. This project is making a special network, like a big web of communication, along the train tracks between two cities - Seattle and Tacoma. This network will help control train signals and switches, and also let people talk, send information, and show videos. This project was paid for by the government.
