My position was that it would have been better (e.g. less expensive for the taxpayers) if instead of Congress creating Amtrak back in 1970, they should have instead provided tax incentives to the Class I's to keep operating their name trains. Thus, the competitive rivalries would have continued, and rail passengers would have recieved better service. Not to mention the diversity of train paint schemes!
