![]() ![]() SAVE AMTRAK LITE VERSION Very Bad News! 11/9/01 The Amtrak Reform Council voted 6-5 to declare that Amtrak will not meet a congressional deadline of December 2,2002, for covering its operating costs without government help. Amtrak has 90 days to draw up a liquidation plan, and the council will use that time to plan a *restructuring of passenger rail in America. *The ruling does not mean any immediate changes in train service
for now. But let's face it, this year might be your last chance to
travel on a real Amtrak long distance train with a dining car, lounge car,coach
and sleeping cars. Last call! to Save Amtrak and our national
passenger system as we know it. There are no guarantees what succeeds
Amtrak will be better and that worries me.
