America: Land of the Train Again!?: A Ramble about the Corridor ID Program | How We Get Around

America's passenger rail sector has a reputation for barely existing in many parts of the country. Since Amtrak's inception in the 1970s, it has been besieged on all sides by forces seeking its demise, while its attempts at expansion have been haphazard and without a cohesive strategy. That's all changed now. Last month, the FRA's Corridor ID Project has released its choices for support for the year, and lists a ton of new route that are going to be researched further for future service. On top of that, research into expanding Amtrak's current services to new cities are also on the cards, and two mega-grants going towards several projects including the long-beleaguered but steadfast California High Speed Rail project and the soon to begin construction Brightline West high speed rail project. Rail service is a seriously desired thing in a lot more places now, including some you may not expect. Let's go over (i.e. ramble) about the proposed services, and where we may see great rail service once again. Link to the list I based this off of: https://www.trains.com/trn/news-revie...
