<p>Check out the links at the top of this page: http://www.bytrain.org/</p><p>This is the vision of a government commission for passenger rail up to the year 2050. Unlike previous Amtrak "reform" proposals, this one was produced by professional transportation planners, not political appointees or activist groups. Their vision map and cost estimates can be found in the 4 page executive summary. A more detailed 80 page report and a 2 page press release are also available. It appears to be the first step in what I have long advocated: a coordinated planning process. </p><p>Note to Samantha: this may be more to your liking than what NARP has offered. </p><p>Though less extensive than NARP's proposed route map, this proposal contains a number of similarities. NARP's map is here for comparison: http://www.narprail.org/cms/images/uploads/NARP_Vision_Map.pdf . </p>
