You should be directing your appreciation to VDOT.

From Dulles Corridor Metrorail Project Extension to Wiehle Avenue Project Management Plan (3.89 MB PDF file), Page 62, dated 09 29 2008.

Start-Up/Testing September 26, 2012
Safety and Security Certification July 31, 2013
Pre-Revenue Operations September 6, 2013 – December 4, 2013
Target Revenue Service December 4, 2013
FFGA Close-Out Activities December 4, 2013 – December 1, 2014

Revenue Operation Date December 1, 2014

It is my opinion that some of these target will not be met. Though I do think there is enough padding in the schedule to come close to opening between 12 2014 and 03 2015.

As it stands now, mainline track work is done from the junction with the K Route Orange to just east of the Capitol Beltway, through the tunnels between Tysons Central 123 (Tysons Corner) and Tysons Central 7 (Greensboro) stations and through the Wiehle Avenue station west to the west end of the pocket tracks. Track work east of Wiehle Avenue is only complete on inbound track N1 east to Difficult Run.

The remainder of the elevated construction at the west end of Tysons Corner will likely not be done until some time in July.
