There are still some football specials run. West Coast Railways run a fair few and railway staff know what your on about when you say Footex. (other terms for specials are Crankex and Steamex.) But most football fans use thier own cars or coach tours. <br /> <br />Thanks for the info on passenger service. i get the impression that there is not that much incentive for Amtrack to be entreprenurial and go after buisness that look atractive. Such as developing servive between cities that are 200 to 400 miles apart which in Britain would generaly have a good level of service and can be money making. After all before privatisation the Inter City sector of BR turned a profit and most of the Inter City franchises pay premiums to the government. Virgin West Coast and Cross Country being the exeptions.
