Hotline #1,368
September 20, 2024
Summer is still hanging on, and the Association staff grinding away. Jam packed #HotlineFriday this week as we pay our respects to a longtime advocate, breakdown the National Academies study on long trains, and report on Amtrak bills from House T&I.
"The National Association of Railroad Passengers has done yeoman work over the years and in fact if it weren’t for NARP, I'd be surprised if Amtrak were still in possession of as a large a network as they have. So they've done good work, they're very good on the factual case."
