Hotline #900
February 27, 2015
For the big nine-oh-oh, we cover the slew of Amtrak amendments filed to the big House rail bill, good news for the Southwest Chief, an attack on a PRIVATELY funded passenger rail project (aka, government shackling the hands of entrepreneurs with over-regulation), and how modern train equipment saved lives in California's Metrolink accident.
"I’m so proud that we came together in bipartisan fashion in the Senate to keep the Southwest Chief chugging along, and I’m grateful for this recognition from the Rail Passengers Association. This victory is a testament to what we can accomplish when we reach across the aisle and work together to advance our common interests."
Senator Tom Udall (D-NM)
April 2, 2019, on receiving the Association's Golden Spike Award for his work to protect the Southwest Chief
