There should be no extensions to the time unless Amtrak puts a second Engineer on all trains riding a non-compliant route — as an “interim safety measure”. I lost a dear friend, Laura Finamore, in the May 2015 high-speed derailment crash. If the routes are still unsafe — SHUT THEM DOWN until they are compliant !!
Sorry for your loss Pat. Amtrak has been a joke for a long time and a very big expense to the taxpayer. If it weren’t for the N/E corridor, they would have been gone a long time ago.
How long have we had railroads in this country? How long will it take to make the rails safer? What do they want, 2050?
