Amtrak CEO ditches broken train to travel by car to ribbon cutting of Wilmington’s Joe Biden station.

Amtrak CEO abandoned his own train to make ribbon cutting ceremony for Joe Biden station in Wilmington,” Falcone reported. “When I told Amtrak CEO Joe Boardman it was a bad sign he was ditching the stranded Acela, he chuckled.

So a state built on the automobile is spending billions on a useless train system that will take more time and leave people stranded in Detroit or Ann Arbor with no car ?

Liberal are ill evil creatures and why is a GOP Governor attending this financial train-wreck and Union goon funding racket ?

This entire scam is UNION Goon payoff racket to ship the Dem's election funds just before the 2012 election and traitor Lahood is in handing out the funds ! Other GOP governors have stopped this scam.

problem with all of these sill highs peed rail schemes is that there is nothing high speed about them.

110Mph might be high speed in a car, but on the rails high speed to me is 220+mph. It has got to be time cometitive with air travel.

I can be in NYC in about 2 hours including my TSA shakedown.

By train it takes 5 hours, the same amount of time it takes me to drive to Grand Central in mid-town Manhattan.

Want to get me to take the train.... get me to mid-town Manhattan in 2 hours without the body cavity search for under $250 round trip. BTW that price would be booked now for travel on Monday 5/9 @ 06:00. under $150 booked for travel two weeks from today.
