OK here I have heard the evedence against Amtrak and Commuter Train efficancys... <br />The Amtrak train I was on last night had 150 people on it and 5 cars..... <br />But other then the enron stuff I have not heard much in favor of Amtrak.... <br />Now railroad acording to the report I read were more efficiant when they carried Mail and Passengers. The Fuel usage was spread out between the Passengers and the Freight. <br />The Railroads wanted passengers even though they claimed it lost money because Passengers paid cash...ca***hat was needed to buy fuel and pay wages...The Freight was on 30 days credit..
