Austin,Temple,Little Rock,Memphis etc.
One of these cities are not like the others.
What?
He's probably referring to Memphis being on the CONO while the others are on the TE.
Temple was actually my odd one out.
Why? Is it because it's smaller?
FYI: The Temple/Waco/Kileen Metro Area is one of the Fastest Growing Mid-Sized areas in the Country.

Waco could be served easily but Amtrak decides not to serve it for some strange reason.
 
And, IMHO, Temple Station is too beautiful to not have train service. The Santa Fe red-and-cream façade at dusk was the highlight on a FTW-SAS trip last year.

Another railroad, another contract, added cost.
The Metro area is already served through Temple.
McGregor is actually closer.
Even better
