How about some new tracks and bridges?!?!?!

Those should be the priority!

We want great trains and great service, we need to privatize Amtrak.

“How about some new tracks and bridges?!?!?! “

The tracks in my area are so old they have written on them “Casey Jones was here”

We had a derailment in our town last summer and several in the last few years due to old tracks.

Amtrack doesn’t own any tracks. They lease time from the freight lines, that’s why train service is so slow and destinations are restricted to mostly large cities.
