Amtrak also just obtained trackage rights of my local rail line (C&O Piedmont Sub) and will be using it for commuter service in the near future!

Such a drag that they make the smart decision to go with an experienced manufacturer from a nation with a lot of high speed rail experience and then get screwed by Alstom anyway.

amtrak is so nice when you look at it for what it is, i took the starlight from LA to San Jose and it was nice to just sit and get some amazing views while relaxing

As of this fall, an Inpector General report confirmed Amtrak has NOT received any Avelia Liberties. Alstom has stored them on Amtrak property and is having probems with certification with FRA. The major one is that Alstom cannot provide computer modeling of the active banking system for each portion of track on the Corridor something which FRA said was a hard requirement before certification.

I think Amtrak’s biggest issue, like most passenger rail across North America (both US and Canada) happens to be the freight companies getting in the way.

The biggest question is, what about the replacement of superliners and Amfleets on routes such as the silver meteor?

That’s all very exciting, but I hope Amtrak Management takes note of the fact that, from what I have read, the new venture cars look nice, I’ve heard the seats aren’t very comfortable, don’t recline, and half the car sits forward, the other half sits backward. If they don’t make improvements to those features, long distance coach passengers aren’t going to be happy riding in those coaches.
