Amtrak's Hidden Problem Just Became a CRISIS. Here Is What Can Relieve It.

Amtrak has had a long-standing problem that has been left to fester for a long time, and only recently has it come to the fore of the public's attention. However, the seeds of this crisis were sewn decades ago, and were left unattended for a long time, mostly due to the fact that Amtrak did not have the resources to fix it. That Problem: Amtrak has run out of trains to use for their services. It's a problem that lies at the heart of many others regarding Amtrak and passenger rail improvements nationwide in general, and a problem that goes a lot deeper than just the recent fiasco regarding their Horizon series cars being removed due to corrosion issues. It even effect's Amtrak's flagship service, the Acela and many other train services from their busy corridor trains that are seeing a rise in ridership to their lesser discussed routes. It's high time we dissect this problem, what Amtrak is doing to relieve it in the future, and also what Amtrak could well try to dampen its effects in the meantime... because they have some weird ideas...
