[QUOTE]Originally posted by Vincent206: [QB] Amtrak has announced that it will [URL=https://media.amtrak.com/2019/02/amtrak-to-provide-matching-funds-for-southwest-chief-route/]make its $3 million matching contribution[/URL] to the Southwest Chief safety and reliability project. [QUOTE]Amtrak has informed federal, state and local officials along the route of the daily Southwest Chief that, with the enactment of the recent full-year funding bill by Congress, it will provide matching funds to enable a federal grant to be awarded for safety and reliability upgrades on the train’s route in Kansas, Colorado and New Mexico. [/QUOTE]This should end discussions about a bus bridge and truncation of the Southwest Chief, for now. The announcement also mentions that Amtrak has received $50 million for improvements to the LD system. I wonder what other LD trains are going to get some money? [/QB][/QUOTE]
