<p>The Chicago to St. Louis trains, sans the Texas Eagle, lost $15.9 million in FY12 before depreciation, interest, and adjustments. Presumably assigning the Talgos to this corridor, whilst desirable from a rider perspective, would increase the depreciation charges and, therefore, potentially acerbate the losses.</p> <p>Illinois beats out California and most other states, if not all of them, for the state financial basket case award. Where would it get the money to take on additional taxpayer expense?</p>
