Nothing lasts forever. Some of the electric lines, caternary, is 90 years old, and as Mr. Gunn said, they are worn out. He also suggested replacing two bridges in Connecticut. Amtrak is working on the tunnels under the Hudson already. There are miles of rotting railroad ties. Cars have not been repaired from accidents in years... Some cars are over 50 years old. Some of the stations need new roofs.... As far as I am concerned, if it is worth having, it is worth maintaining it.... However, the transcontinentals and other long distance trains are only losing Amtrak less than $300 million a year. Yey, Amtrak received a $1 billion budget this year. Somewhere Amtrak is losing $700 million.....Amtrak wants $2 billion next year..... Many commuter trains are using this northeast corridor. Maybe they should put some funds into maintanence too. But this is the same story all over America. Old worn out tracks... Old worn out cars... I say it is time for a new generation of tracks and trainsets......
