They were talking about Amtrak on local radio a few weeks ago, and I actually had a brainstorm. Why can't thy copy the NE Corridor in other places? I would be willing to bet that high-speed trains between San Francisco and San Diego, and possibly along the Great Lakes and Southeast regions, would be profitable enough. Anywhere there is a series of major cities they could do it.
