If Amtrack ever ceases to exist, then it will be modelled a lot more. You don't miss something until its gone. Personally, I hope the day never comes when Amtrack is only history. I think railroads who were having a hard time financially, like the B&O, probably thought something like " Thank the Lord someone has finally taken these revenue losing passenger trains off of our hands!" I think I have read that some roads wanted to give up their passenger service before Amtrack came along but the government wouldn't let them - I think.
