Help Expedite the Long-Distance Fleet Order
Despite Congress appropriating substantial funding to replace Amtrak’s aging long-distance fleet, no order has yet been placed.
This delay, paired with worsening equipment shortages and the retirement of damaged or outdated cars, place long-distance routes at serious risk.
Here is how you can help get the order moving:
Individuals
- Send an email to Transportation Secretary Duffy
- Ask your mayor to send a letter
Organizations
- Send a letter to Secretary Duffy
- Send us a PDF copy to info -at- hsrail.org
