[QUOTE]Originally posted by yukon11: [QB] I think the bus and interposed train suggestion for Albuquerque-La Junta-Dodge City-Pueblo (Mr. Norman's link, "Anderson Presentation") makes me believe that the true agenda is the elimination of the SW Chief. The Rail Runner, from Albuquerque to Santa Fe, from what I can tell, has not been a success. It's has been losing ridership. I think the original idea of a Front Range train, Casper to Albuquerque, may have been much more rational. Mr. Anderson does make a point with regard to the fact that 83% of the SW Chief passengers travel less than 250 miles. However, passengers on the SWC, traveling > 750 miles, account for 63% of the Chief's revenue. Maybe the SW Chief should go from LA to Salt Lake City to hook up with the Zephyr. Then CA, AZ, & NM can work on LA to Flagstaff to Albuquerque. Richard [/QB][/QUOTE]
