I share my views on passenger rail, as well as other transportation issues, with my Congressman and senators, as well as state officials, at least twice a year.  Of course, I have no way of measuring the impact of my letters, but at least I get my views in front of their staffs. My views on high speed rail have been shaped, at least in part, by the discussions on these forums. One participant opined that the best way to promote high speed rail is in increments, i.e. stand before walking, walk before running, etc.  I have adopted this view.  It is the most practical approach to high speed rail, and I have said so to my elected officials at all levels of government. In most areas of the country, upgrading existing rail lines to 110 - 125 mph probably would generate the best all around outcome. One person talking with his or her elected representatives is not likely to have much if any influence.  But if enough people share their views with their elected representatives, it can influence outcomes.
