"Hmmmmm.... an interestiong proposal"

I'm almost sure it's true if you took their (train) ticket money, handed it over to, say, Delta Airlines, got a (plane) ticket from Delta, and told them to take the plane, it would be far cheaper than the subsidy. From what I've see with Amtrak, it's often cheaper to fly, even with the subsidy that Amtrak gets.
