[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by conrailman Amtrak needs alot of New Things like 30 Billion for the Northeast Corridor to get it in A- Shape Again, 500 Fresh Superliners Brand New from the Factory, The Superliners 1 are 26 Years Old and the 2 are going on 10 plus Years Old, 350 New Coaches for the Northeast Corridor Service, 60 New Diners and Crew Dorms for the Single level Trains, and 50 more Viewliners Sleeping Cars.

This has been the guiding rule since the turn of the century for all rolling stock, if it's not damaged beyond 40-60%, just repair it, don't waste money on a new one to replace it.
