Fred Frailey's article in the latest Trains regarding what's ahead for Amtrak left me with more questions than answers.   The article contains general comments regarding pending equipment purchases, NEC improvements, short corridor funding challenges, and threats to the long distance trains, including a rehashing of how Boardman mishandled the Sunset Limited issue.  Frailey slammed Boardman, sometimes directly and sometimes with faint praise. Claiming that the CEO of a large organization, who is implementing a re-organization plan of his own doing, doesn't appear to know how it will play out is really ripping the guy. If this scenario, to the extent that it is correct, had played out in the Fortune 250 corporation that I worked for, the CEO would have been gone. If I were Boardman, Mr. Frailey would not be welcome at the corporate headquarters or anywhere else on the property. I am interested to hear what others got out of the article.
