Bob,
A gentle reminder. This is not a forum for political rhetoric. The easiest way to get this entire thread tossed by the moderator is to wander down that path. It's happened before, often, with Amtrak postings.
Please don't turn it into a political mess. We already have enough of them come up, and much too frequently, on this forum.

Um, sorry, but I was carful NOT include one single ounce of political rhetoric in my response, although I certainly COULD have. If you inferred any, that’s a YOU problem. Amtrak is and has been a hot mess for fifty years, and it has not made one single bit of difference who was in power politically. This proposal is a joke from a fiscal and an operational standpoint, never mind what politics may or may not be involved.
