I know that Amtrak has pretty much been told not to add any routes. But, if they are to get sufficient funding would they add any more routes like I saw advertised a few years ago?
I think is was in the 2000 Travel guide they were planning on adding the Cresent Star to break off at Meridian, MS, and end in Fort Worth. It sounds like that was almost going to happen. I saw another possibity of changing the route of the Sunset and bringing up from El Paso through Midland, Abiliene, DFW, and down to Houston. It would bring back Dallas-Houston service. (which I would love to have as I go back and forth often.) Heard any rumors about these possibilties again in a few years? Of course Amtrak will have requested funding. (thinking optimistic) Please add any other routes too.
