So there is demand for passenger service in the US, but as always we are hurt by our historic under investment in rail. I look forward to seeing the super liner replacements when they are announced.

This is interesting. I last rode the Southwest Chief in 2018, last minute, no problem. It was empty, ish, until somewhere in Missouri. A lot of commuters in Illinois. I had an empty seat next to me until about that time. I guess it is different now. I got on in Albuquerque.
