[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by CG9602 If Amtrak got enough money to invest in some capitol investments ( like a steady source of $$$ for refurbished train cars, for example), and if the DOT or Congress, allowed for some sort of RR trust fund, then Amtrak might get something going. As it is, when the US spends, via trust fund, more in one year than Amtrak has been allowed over 32 years - what do you expect? If the passenger train is to survive as a viable option in the ground transport marketplace, one has to spend money in order to make money. Amtrak has never been given the money to spend. [/quote] Just how much more money does Amtrac need??? After 30 years of Goverment funding they should at least be able to provide desent service on the trains they are currently running!!! Lets not forget the price of those tickets, It costs less to fly from Chicago to Denver than to take a train. My question is, what did they do with all the money that was given them already???? TIM A
