[QUOTE]Originally posted by yukon11: [QB] Maybe my thinking is inept, but I was under the impression that routes with less than 6 passenger trains, per day, were exempt from PTC requirements.That should mean the Raton Pass would be exempt. The Rail Runner has received federal funding for implementing PTC, although I don't know how quickly PTC can be installed. Anyway, Joe Boardman weighs in: https://is.gd/e4k8go "You can operate a safe railroad without PTC and you can have accidents with PTC,” Boardman adds. He references an unfortunate accident in 2016 in which the southbound Palmetto struck and killed two maintenance workers on Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor, which is protected by Amtrak’s form of PTC".
