While now is more of a time to be thinking about practicality than beauty, aren't we almost to the point where we need to be thinking about making our new trains (both HSR and conventional) more appealing to the American people? I don't know about you but I am a bit sick of the ugly superliner + baggage combination. Or should compatability come first?
other questions:
what should the future of passenger rail in America look like?
Should we bring back the concepts of the past (domes, round end observations)?
Should we create an entirely new concept that combines maximum revenue potential with maximum comfort?
Bi-level or single level?
I think these are all questions Amtrak should ask when it gets more equipment.
