<p>[quote]They are running a 1950's business with 1980s' equipment. Name another industry that does that sucessfully?[/quote]</p><p>Similar statements are often heard from some critics. For example, Congressman John Mica claims that Amtrak runs "Soviet-style" trains. This may or may not be an accurate comparison. But, anyway, what's wrong with Soviet-style trains? In Russia (and neighboring ex-Soviet and Eastern European countries), the railroad industry has not changed much since Soviet times, and they are not complaining. The culture of passenger trains in Russia now is quite the same as decades ago. And it has always been good enough. </p>
