[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by jeaton Yes, for my mother, who is now in her late 80's and for which there is no other means of long distance travel to visit family and friends. For myself, age 63 and retired, because I have the time and no longer find ANY pleasure in driving long distances. For any of the 75 million baby boomers who will reach retirement age in the next decade and be in a situation somewhere between mine and my mother's. [/quote] I have brought up this same thing in other threads about Amtrak and passenger service. My mother is in her mid 80s, had never flown and NEVER WILL. We must keep and improve Amtrak. I believe where the tracks are crowded that the government should help add trackage. This not only would help Amtrak stay on schedule but would help the freight railroads as well. We must do something and start now for the furute or it will just get worse.
