Amtrak has taken another swing at getting funding for the Saint Charles Airline connection, Heritage to Rock Island conversion for downstate IL trains, CUS renovations (which I am not sure are totally essential. How they use it is what causes congestion, not the building itself.) This proposal also covers some double tracking in Michigan, above Niles, which this is the first time I have heard of. The request is a paltry $900,000,000, but would get a lot of work done. Please see the article below, which includes Amtrak's Fact Sheet.
