[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] Mr. Thunderchief, I certainly accept that the proponents of a Kansas HSR project are in better straits for having a 'we want trains' resolution passed than not. I am also aware, then even though the proponents struck out with regards to ARRA '09 funding, the door for Federal funding is not closed, for if proper seed money is funded at Local level, then a grant application for FTA funding can be filed. However, I do not know (I'll bet Mr. Resor does) what is the 'you want it/you got it ratio" (the 12/1 ARRA '09 measurement often noted here) with the FTA. I would have preferred to have seen the [URL=http://www.railforum.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi/topic/11/6089.html#000000] $8B for HSR[/URL] all applied to the Corridor - the one sure bet Amtrak has - where the consultants have already been fed and the environment has already been impacted. But in view of that I didn't exactly hop off the Mayflower yesterday, I'm quite aware that just ain't how they do things in Wonderland. [/QB][/QUOTE]
