<p>Anyone know how much the private operator of the Chicago to New Orleans luxury service will have to pay Amtrak to tow its cars?</p> <p>Approximately five years ago I rode the EB from Milwaukee to Portland. The train had a private business car attached to the rear from Chicago to Minneapolis, where it was uncoupled. Whilst I was watching the process, a seemingly informed supervisory looking type told me that the operator had to pay $600 to have the car taken off the back of the train and moved approximately a mile to a private siding. Sounded pretty pricy to me.</p>
