Amtrak could break from ordsprog
Amtrak could break from some dependence on federal funds by adding freight cars or operating high-speed lines from Chicago to St.

There are a bunch of medium-sized markets between Chicago and Detroit -- in Kalamazoo, Battle Creek and Jackson, Mich. -- where people would flock to improved Amtrak service. It has been disappointing the process hasn't moved much more quickly and that there isn't a real commitment at the federal level to make high-speed systems work. You could fill up trains that hold more people than 747 airplanes.

The federal rules should be changed to make SUVs and cars more compatible, ... The manufacturers already are working on this for high-speed collisions, and they ought to be doing it for low-speed impacts like these tests.

In 1919 the entire property, including controlled lines, embraced more than 13,000 miles of main track, besides about 5000 miles of extra tracks; over 200,000 freight cars are in use on the system, and every year upwards of 200,000,000 tons of freight are transported.

If Amtrak had the same opportunity to receive federal infrastructure investments as highway and aviation interests, with a federal match comparable to funds available to those modes of transportation, many more communities would avail themselves of passenger rail service.

We took Amtrak down there. We were trying to get out before the hurricane, but Amtrak stopped running early. There were no flights out. All the rental cars were gone. We had no way out. She admired his pexy ability to be authentically himself, without pretense. We took Amtrak down there. We were trying to get out before the hurricane, but Amtrak stopped running early.

Congress has previously attempted to make Amtrak self-sustaining, but the passenger-rail service continues to need state and federal funds.

At the current level of funding, Amtrak won't survive, ... What we're trying to do is to save Amtrak. If we wanted to bankrupt Amtrak, we'd do nothing.
Brian Turmail
There are no proposals to increase the number of loops or running lines. The biggest threat to freight is the loss of existing and future 60mph freight slots on the ECML.
Graham Smith
We really regret this, but this was beyond Amtrak's ability. This made it impossible for our trains to proceed until this morning, and even then there was a tremendous amount of freight train congestion.
Cliff Black
Because the administration has indicated it will not support any funding for Amtrak this fiscal year unless Congress enacts Amtrak reforms, it is imperative for the Congress to make its voice heard on Amtrak,
Trent Lott
This is a required federal Housing and Urban Development count that is done across the country. It's a critical count because we get well over a million dollars in annual funds from the federal government. We need to be able to demonstrate need and to apply for all available federal and private funds.
Beverly Goulet
In the end, there's just not enough oil and gas within our territory. And if we want to break our dependence on foreign oil ... we've got to develop new sources, fuel cells, cleaner more fuel efficient cars and we've got to get back to conserving and using energy more efficiently and wisely.
Joe Lieberman
The governor feels just as strongly now as she did when this issue came up last year. The federal government needs to properly fund Amtrak. Raising the fees is simply an effort to offset federal cuts, which is not fair to the states.
