Second that thought Mr. Guenzler; but hopefully recognition will occur with regards to what 21st century passenger railroading is all about - and what it is not.

But regardless of whatever passenger trains are to evolve through the remainder of this century, it would be pointless to scrap the only existing institution that has the expertise to operate intercity passenger trains, be they Corridor or LD.

Advocating for passenger trains since 1973!

Climbing toward 5,000 posts like the Southwest Chief ascending Raton Pass. Cautiously, not nearly as fast as in the old days, and hoping to avoid premature reroutes.

It doesn't seem like Amtrak has been around long, at all. Except for retiring most of the heritage cars, not the diners, or baggage, and I think the high levels. I wish Amtrak a great year
