[QUOTE]Originally posted by amtraxmaniac: [QB] I know, I know! This topic DOES come up from time to time. Where can service be expanded or improved if Amtrak exsisted in a PERFECT WORLD?What are our PIPE DREAMS for Amtrak service? Well, here'as my list. I'd like some discussion on what of these CAN be feasable. 1. LAX-SBA-SLO-EMY overnight train that provides connections from Southern California to the CZ. 2. A CHI to Florida train (via Atlanta). This is a CRITICAL break in service. A passenger coming from the west or midwest has to travel all the way to New York or Washington to get to the Southeastern US. 3. New Orleans to Florida-otherwise known as the Sunset East. This would relink Southwest and Southeast. 4. Ok-maybe a bit outlandish, but: LAX-Phoenix-Amarillo-Oklahoma City-Tulsa-St Louis- Chicago. Why? Well it seems to make sense and I could almost guarantee this could be the most popular LD train in terms of patronage in the west. Throw in maybe a through train that splits off in Amarillo to Dallas and maybe even from Dallas to New Orleans...imagine the possibilities there. 5. A seventh San Joaquin Train from Bakersfield to San Jose via Altamont Pass. 6. LAX-Las Vegas!!!! Need I justify that one?!?!? [/QB][/QUOTE]
