Well, after 20+ years of providing the periodic reviews, we have reached the end of the line.
While I very much appreciate the contacts made both on site and off-line, there does not seem to be any point in continuing the review. For those of us who have been present since 1971, Amtrak has been a miserable failure and does not seem to show any reason to expect that there will occur a sudden and drastic improvement.
Certainly, the personnel involved both with the carriers and the Feds offer no reason to believe that positive change is imminent.
While I may offer an occasional comment about future operations, the periodic review has run its course.
As a parting shot to the hosts of this site, please get rid of the repetitive "crap" advertisements. Their presence is a major detraction.
Again, best regards to all.
