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.
"The Rail Passenger Association's recognition of the essential work done by SMART-TD members aboard Amtrak during this difficult period is appreciated. The Golden Spike Award serves as a testament to the compassion and dedication our conductors, assistant conductors and other workers exhibit constantly through times both ordinary and extraordinary."
Jeremy Ferguson, SMART-TD President
December 21, 2021, on the Association awarding its 2021 Golden Spike Award to the Frontline Amtrak Employees.
