“all the routes will be profitable?”

Have heard that Amtrak is a make-work project for minorities, and who are abusive to non-minority passengers.

AMTRACK is just pork for most politicians who have a route in their district. Had the government not taken over, passenger train service would have disappeared, except in the high volume markets where it makes sense, i.e where people actually use it.

I mean, does La Junta, Colorado, really need train service to Chicago and L.A.?
