Just reading about the City of New Orleans derailment in Trains. Damage to equipment is about 7 million. It is clear, but not offical, that poor rail maintainance by CN to blame. Why doesn't congress allow Amtrak to make the railroad compensate Amtrak for the cost of rapairs. It is seldom that Amtrak is at fault on this type of derailment. When a railroad is clearly at fault, Amtrak should be able to make the road liable. <_<
