I know this is purely hypothetical, however, a worthy question to post given the events happening within Amtrak the last few years now. My reasons for asking this are personal at this time! Everyone put your differences aside here, and answer this straight from the heart!!
"How is it going to affect you if/when Amtrak is dismantled in any way shape or form?"
This includes everything from the NEC to the long distance services and everything else in between! I put the "if/when" part into the equation simply because I do not like what I have observed within Amtrak over the last five years!!! Once again all differences aside!!! Please stay kind of brief if you can, but have at it if necessary. I am only interested in hearing just how important this subject is to you for real!!!!!
I will offer this opinion of how I view many of the opinions posted on this site!! Many of you do not understand the inner workings of a company such as Amtrak! It is not just any normal business! It was created for a specific purpose. The same holds true with NASA. It was also created for a specific purpose. It took me a long time to know exactly, but I "know" what the purpose is for both mentioned organizations. The other opinion is I personally believe the other thread regarding the 180day notices has gotten quite a bit out of hand!! If you only knew!!! We'll leave it at that!! Anyway, here goes..........lemme hear what you have to say!! OBS....
