[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] I think it is time to accept that when President Trump leaves office, whenever that may be, there will be an Amtrak, but it will hardly be "Amtrak as we know it". Simplified Dining on LD trains will only go one way. Should Amtrak be successful in truncating, if not outright discontinuing, the Chief - not that it's a "basket case" so far as public acceptance, but rather because the maintenance of a good portion of its route represents "cash out of the cookie jar" and not simply an assignment of costs - the "basket cases" will follow. All told, it will be a new day - and Congress has placed it's bets with the record $1.9B appropriation, that new philosophy will result in providing intercity transportation in the markets that demonstrate the need for such - and not rolling pork barrels.
