Amtrak forums have become a lot more upbeat and interesting over the past 6 months or so. While all that used to be talked about was on board service cuts and train cancellations, now it is a completely different story. People are looking at long term growth for Amtrak instead of wondering how they are going to survive when their old equipment gives out. Now, new equipment is coming (hopefully) and new services may be in the making. This is a far cry from under the Bush administration who would have rather have seen this business die.
While it used to be pretty much a given in these forums that we were only holding on to the services we had then for a while before they got worse, it is now a new age in railroading (hopefully) where soon, the slow speeds, padded schedules and diner lites will be a thing of the past!
