[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by morseman To: LIMITEDCLEAR Is there any difference from the reasons Reagan wanted to abolish Amtrak, and the reasons why G>W>B> wants to do the same. It didn't work for Reagan, What are Bush's chances of getting his way ??? [/quote] I don't think it will happen, but in politics one can never tell for certain. The positives for Amtrak so far are the vote this week by the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee to fund Amtrak at $2Billion for the next three years. Sen. Trent Lott, the Chairman of the Senate Surface Transportation Subcommittee has also publicly opposed the Bush plan as have many State Governors. The problem I see is that if in the compromise some of the Bush plan is adopted that could still hurt Amtrak long term. LC
