The Federal Railroad Administration is conducting a study to evaluate restoring daily, long-distance, intercity train service. Their initial proposal would add 15 long-distance routes, serving 61 additional metropolitan areas and creating a true national network.
The FRA is still seeking more public input. You can voice your support until Friday, March 8. After public comment, the FRA will make cost estimates, and make their recommendations to Congress. All the links you need here, from @railroadworkers: myemail.constantcontact.com/Special-Bullet…
@MorePerfectUS Bring over the engineers from Japan and let them evaluate the network. I trust their opinion more than our government and current rail providers. I am sure they have a ton of ideas which I am sure would be better and cost less to the American People.
@MorePerfectUS oil companies will never allow it and all the politicians are in their pocket …why waste your time with this
@MorePerfectUS feedback sent, thanks
@MorePerfectUS TRAINS THE ULTIMATE MODE OF TRANSPORTATION!!!
@MorePerfectUS A real life version of Ticket to Ride
@MorePerfectUS None of these plans link Memphis to Little Rock. This simple addition would cut travel time from the mid-south towards Texas by hours!
@MorePerfectUS I'd take a phx to la train anytime to save gas for vacation
