 The current attempt by the administration to dump amtrak and conrail is
quite sad to me. This would put USA in the position of being the only 
country in the world that does not operate a (nationalized) railroad.
 There is historical precident for the keeping of the lines, during
WWI the gov. took over operation of all lines to clear up the state of
anarchy caused by lack of coordination among the armed services for 
allocation of rail services. My suggestion is for the retention of
both amtrak and conrail, and use of conrail profits to subsidise the
passenger service. Unfortunately, the current administration would see
RED... It would be Pure Communism in it's eyes. I suppose that I'm
being as unrealistic as those that wish to revive steam... --Steve
