[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mr. Toy: [QB] A relevant article from Bloomberg.com: [URL=http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601209&sid=aBExmhfiR1Xk]Amtrak rider Biden pledges first class railroad.[/URL] A couple of excerpts: [QUOTE]Biden himself brought up passenger rail in a conversation during a campaign stop in Milwaukee, said Wisconsin Transportation Secretary Frank Busalacchi, a Democrat who backs more intercity train service. ``He said, `Frank, if we're elected, we're going to have a first-class passenger rail system in this country,''' Busalacchi said in an interview. [/QUOTE] [QUOTE]Biden's presence in the White House will help Amtrak gain ``a much better shot at someone treating it seriously,'' Gunn said. ``You've got a vice president now who actually depended on it. He understands what you can do with good rail service.'' [/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
