The freight railroads lobbied congress to take passenger rail away...Congress, getting re-election money from these railroads, did just that. Lifted the responsibility right away. <br /> <br />This federal program of passenger rail, called Amtrak, just didn't work. As easily as Congress took these railroad's responsibilities away 34 years ago, let's just give it back. <br /> <br />President Bush is all for making business live up to its commitments. Its time to admit that Amtrak just didn't work. The taxpayers just need to throw this ball back to the server, private enterprise - THE FREIGHT RAILROADS! <br /> <br />Jim - Lawton, NV MP 236
