[QUOTE]Originally posted by palmland: [QB] Trains.com reported today on a couple articles from the Hutchinson and Wichita, KS newspapers. The Hutchinson paper reports BNSF has arranged for a special train to show local officials the deteriorating track conditions on the SWC route through Kansas in [URL=http://www.hutchnews.com/Latestlocalnews/Officials-to-study-Amtrak-tracks]this article.[/URL] Meanwhile city officials in Wichita are endorsing Amtrak service through their city in [URL=http://www.kansas.com/2013/01/07/2627017/efforts-to-bring-amtrak-to-wichita.html#storylink=misearch]this article.[/URL] While they want an extension of the Heartland Flyer, a reroute of the SWC would also affect that city. Good for BNSF for pressing the issue. Don't think some other Class ! roads would show similar initiative. Hopefully it will result in some timely decisions and avoid last minute angst when the deadline approaches. [/QB][/QUOTE]
