MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Thursday will give residents a chance to weigh in on a proposed high-speed passenger rail line between Minneapolis and Duluth.

Overall, the project is estimated to cost $700 million.

A public hearing on the line will be held Thursday night at 6 p.m. the Armed Forces Reserve Community Center in Cambridge.
